Step 1
Thinly slice the 8 oz mushrooms and chop the 3 green onions, separating white and green parts. In a pot, heat 1 tsp sesame oil over medium-high.
Step 2
Add the mushrooms and white parts of the onions. Cook until mushrooms are browned and tender, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Pour in the 4 cups chicken broth and 1 tbsp soy sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a gentle simmer.
Step 4
In a bowl, beat the 2 eggs. Slowly drizzle the eggs into the simmering soup while stirring in one direction to form ribbons, about 1 minute.
Step 5
Turn off heat, stir in the green onion tops, and serve hot.
