| 1 | Egg Substitute |
| As needed | Cornflour Paste* |
Instructions:
- In a saucepan, combine the creamed corn, tofu, and water. 🌽🥄

- Reduce the heat to low and simmer the soup, continuing to stir occasionally, until it thickens slightly. 🥣🔥
- Once the soup has reached your desired consistency, slowly pour in the egg substitute while stirring briskly to create delicate ribbons of egg throughout the soup. 🥚💧

- Serve the soup hot, garnished with fresh herbs or a drizzle of sesame oil, if desired. Enjoy this nourishing and flavorful dish! 🌿🍜
