Dumpling Soup

When I need something warm, fast, and extra satisfying, this dumpling soup is my go-to. It comes together in just 30 minutes with frozen dumplings, a flavorful miso-ginger broth, and fresh toppings like chili crisp and scallions. It’s one of those meals that feels like takeout—but better, because it’s homemade and totally customizable.

Ingredients

  • 6 cups chicken stock or vegetable broth divided
  • ¼ cup white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 5 green onions white and green parts separated, sliced
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 tbsp minced ginger
  • 3 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1-1½ lbs. frozen dumplings*
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice more to taste
  • chili crisp and sesame seeds optional for topping

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, mix ½ cup chicken stock and miso paste until a smooth mixture forms.
  • In a dutch oven or large pot, heat the sesame oil over medium high heat. Add the green onion whites, garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Pour the remaining chicken stock and the stock/miso mixture into the pot along with the soy sauce, and carrots.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, lower to a strong simmer, and cook until the carrots are tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the dumplings and bring the soup back to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 4-5 minutes or until the dumplings are cooked through.
  • Stir in the lime juice and green onion greens. Remove from the heat.
