Tomatoes are a great ingredient to add to egg drop soup because they add flavor, texture, and nutrition. Tomatoes have a naturally sweet and acidic taste that can balance out the rich and savory taste of the broth. They also add a nice texture to the soup, making it more hearty and satisfying. Tomatoes are also a good source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, which can help boost the nutritional content of the soup. Additionally, the acidity in tomatoes can help to thicken the broth and make the soup more hearty and filling.
