Chives are a vegetable that is both edible and medicinal. They are rich in fiber, which can prevent certain diseases and help strengthen bones. When buying chives, choose those that are green, with firm, crisp leaves that are not wilted, and with young stems.

When buying chives, try breaking off a sprig with your hand to check their quality. If it breaks easily and snaps crisply, it's freshly picked and delicious. Conversely, if the sprig is tough and difficult to break, it's old and shouldn't be bought.

When buying eggs, choose those with thick shells and a medium size, as they are usually fresher than those with thin shells and large sizes.

When buying eggs, you can check if they are fresh or old by gently shaking them. If there is no movement inside, then they are definitely fresh eggs.

Note that you shouldn't cook chives for too long, as prolonged cooking will make the chives tough.

Other ingredients such as minced pork or meatballs can be added to the chives soup with eggs to make it more nutritious.

This dish should be eaten hot; avoid letting it cool down too much as it will become fishy.

The article above has guided you on how to make a delicious and nutritious chive and egg soup. On busy days when you don't have much time in the kitchen, you should cook this soup for the whole family. This soup is nutritious and appealing.

Good luck!
