Name: Chinese Egg Drop Soup

Because marriage comes from God above and not from man or beast below, it involves moral, not merely physical problems. A sin against the commandment of purity is a sin against God, not simply the outraging of convention, the thoughtlessness of youth, the evidence of bad taste. The Savior tells us that, when God's children are joined in wedlock, they are united by God, and beneath the evident strength and courage and love that this divine direction promises there is a penetrating, ominous warning. Those who tamper with God's institution have lighted the fuse to the explosive of retributive justice. Marriage is so holy that of all social sins its violation invokes the most appalling consequences. Sodom and Gomorrah were burned out of existence because of the vile disregard of the holiness of marriage. David's rule over Israel was blackened by his marital follies and by the royal lust that forgot God and dedicated itself to raging passion. The Hebrew people dropped out of the family of nations largely because of the vicious practices associated with Balaam worship (Walter Maier).

1	sl	Fresh ginger (up to 2)
1	tb	Plus

1	tb	Cornstarch
3	tb	Cold water

INSTRUCTIONS

Bring broth and ginger to a simmer. Simmer 20 minutes and then remove the
ginger. Add soy sauce and salt to taste. Combine the cornstarch and water
and work them into a smooth paste. Whisk the paste into the hot broth.
Simmer the broth for 1 minute, until it thickens slightly. Add the
scallions and cilantro. Use a small pitcher to pour the eggs in a steady
stream over the simmering broth. Swirl the broth so it's moving in a circle
as you're pouring in the beaten egg. Don't stir the broth for about 45
seconds so the eggs have a chance to set. Once the eggs have set, lightly
break up the threads with a fork. Serve in hot bowls.
Recipe is from _Splendid Soups_ by James Peterson.
