Default Egg drop soup?

Anyone have a recipe for making this that tastes like the kind you get
from a chinese place? Yes, I did google and got a whole bunch of recipes
- some of which seem to include things I wouldn`t expect. . The egg drop
I used to get seemed pretty simple just a rich broth and the eggs. I
tried making with canned chicken broth at home and it wasn`t nearly as
good. Some of the recipes called for either flour or cornstarch - is
that what I`m missing?



I usually use Chinese chicken stock that I make just for these kinds
of soup. I find that the canned, paste, cube or regular stocks have too
many non-Asian flavors and are distracting in soup.
