Wonton Soup with Homemade Dumplings recipe
The Novice Chef

This easy Wonton Soup is a cozy Chinese soup recipe made with Homemade Pork Dumplings floating in a clear and flavorful, Asian-style broth.

Ingredients

8 cups low sodium chicken stock (or bone broth)
2 inch piece of peeled ginger (cut into large slices)
3 garlic cloves (smashed)
2 tablespoons soy sauce (or to taste)
1 tablespoon Chinese cooking wine (or rice wine)
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
4 green onions (sliced)
36 Homemade Chinese Dumplings
baby bok choy (quartered)
Chinese broccoli (sliced into pieces)
baby spinach leaves
green onions (for garnish)

Method

1
In a large stock pot, combine chicken stock, ginger, garlic cloves, soy sauce, rice wine, sesame oil and green onions.
2
Place lid on the pot and bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Let cook for 10-15 minutes.
3
While the broth simmers, cook your wontons. Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the wontons to the pot in batches, about 12 wontons at a time.
4
Boil for 3 to 4 minutes, until the dumplings float to the top and are slightly translucent. Remove with slotted spoon and place straight into serving bowls.
5
Strain out the chunky garlic and ginger from the broth and discard both.
6
If using any optional vegetables (like baby bok choy), blanch in the soup broth and place in serving bowl.
7
Ladle hot broth over the wontons. Let stand for 2-3 and garnish with green onions. Serve immediately.
