This is a Higher Quality upload of Clara’s 2007 video, Egg Drop Soup. This was one of our first videos. It has been one of our family’s favorite Great Depression meals, especially when we need something quick and filling. Enjoy!

  1. She reminds me of my Moomoo except with red hair. Her videos bring me comfort and joy and now I'm about to tear up.

  2. I inherited this recipe from my grandmother ( she used to cook it for us children) never knew it was from this era

  3. My grandparents on my mother's side hate me because I'm gay and my grandparents and my dad side died before I turn 8 years old, so I never got that much of a grandparent experience

  4. Is it the starch from the potatoes that makes the eggs 'drop'? Usually it's done with corn starch, but potato starch must be fine too. Never thought of that.

  5. the upcoming depression is going to make the great depression look great in comparison no one has vegetable gardens or chickens anymore

  6. She reminds me of my late mother who also went through the Great Depression and survived on the cheapest foods like Clara fixes😊

  7. When our family business went belly up in the 1970's, I was more than thankful to have dinners like the ones you make. There is nothing worse than going to bed hungry.

  8. No offence to this amazing women. But fryed eggs, onion, and potatoes would be better is a Australians point of view

  9. I never knew my grandparents, but my moms side is Italian. Watching Clara is what I imagine it would’ve been like to know my Italian family.❤. She is sooooo adorable I just can’t get enough of these videos!!

  10. This my first time ever seeing this gentle soul.Its May 13th, 2023 and this lady died in 2013 over 10yrs ago with a Youtube channel that will keep her memory.Youtube is something else.Just imagine if she died in 1950's she only as a memory of her image on pictures taken in her younger years.She on YouTube and the world will know who she is that wouldn't of been possible back in her days.

  11. Sadly women’s liberation looked down on the likes of Clara. They believe the role of a housewife is demeaning. It can be further from the truth. The role goes full circle. Nest for your loved ones gives you a feeling of love and accomplishment. There’s something about keeping your family alive, health and happy.

  12. I made this soup soon I saw this on video
    Was so delicious 😋 with parmigiano on top nice winter soup

  13. I’m not sure who monitors this channel, but I watched years ago and started missing her again recently. I learned so much back then and I miss her. You are lucky to have had her in your life. Feels great watching her videos again years later. I miss you Mrs. Clara ❤.

  14. The only thing that would have made these videos better is if they were 3x as long! I could binge watch these over and over❤

  15. I remember my mom used to cook potatoes and onions with a bit of ground beef in this type of watery broth. Another recipe was potatoes and onions with an egg sauce on top. Its amazing what you can do with eggs and potatoes.

  16. I love her cooking sooo much that's what you call comfort food made with love. I miss her so much❤

  17. Her knife skills are so different than my own. My grandma has the exact same style and i never could get the hang of it. I chock it up to them using dull knives and me taking influence from all these high level chefs online and trying to be like them

  18. Oh I miss my gram. I'm lucky to have her in my life when I was married and had my own daughter. She died at age 99 in 2020 but I am Happy I got a whole bunch of her recipes. Watching Miss Clara gives me joy n peace and reminds me of my sweet gram just like Miss Clara. God bless you for making these videos !!! She must be cooking with my little gram in heaven.

  19. Hi bonjour, i am french canadian quebecoise gaspesian amerindian mic mac and italian and i like very much this cool grand mother Clara dead in novembre 2013 i have big respect with this woman. I love and respect this grande Mother. Rip Miss Clara. I have a big respect for you and your family kisses Kym. ❤

  20. Keeping it simple, like Miss Clara said; “nothing to it”. Amazing that some of the best things in life are so simply.
