Once the mixture is boiling, turn the heat down to medium. Remove a few tablespoons of the boiling liquid and whisk in the cornstarch. The slurry should be smooth when you return it to the soup.

While the soup bubbles, slowly pour in the beaten eggs, while stirring the soup. Once the eggs are completely added, remove the soup from the heat.
