You just crack the egg in the noodle soup while you boil the noodle, when the noodle is done, the egg will be cooked too. Now there are two types eggs in the noodle soup, one that we call "Flying Egg", which you whip the egg first then slowly stir it in the soup, so that the egg are floating pieces in the soup, kind of like the egg in the "Egg Drop Soup". The other type is that you just crack the egg, and drop it in the soup, do not stir it until the egg is cooked, so that you can get a whole egg in the soup.

Thanks gq, "Flying Egg" just sounds fun. Is there a name for when you don't stir it in until it's cooked? If not, we should think of one. I will be trying the flying egg this week!
