Stir Well.Simmer on medium heat for 15 minutes. After the 15 minutes grab a small bowl and add the 2 TBS. cold water and 1 TBS. cornstarch and mix it well. Now add the mixture to the soup and stir it in really good. Now with the coffee can, put the lid on it and poke 4 holes in it with a screw driver an inch a part. Now put the lightly beaten eggs in the can put the lid on, turn off the heat on the stove. When you turn off the burner flip the can over so there is a slow steady stream of egg coming out of the canister into the soup, with your other hand use a whisk to beat in the eggs till the can doesn't have any egg left.
Your finished, ENJOY!
