- Remove pot from heat and stir in green onions and soy sauce. Add salt and pepper if needed and serve.
Tips & Notes:

- If you do not have fresh ginger, a pinch of dried ginger will also work.
Storage & Reheating:

- Reheat on the stove top over medium heat, adding broth as needed and stirring occasionally.
