What is dumpling soup made of?
Many cultures around the world have their own version of dumpling soup, like Chinese wonton soup, Korean mandu-guk, or Italian tortellini in brodo, to name a few. This dumpling soup recipe is Asian-inspired, but it isn’t intended to be an authentic version of any traditional dish.
Here’s what you’ll need to make it:
- Frozen dumplings, of course! No need to thaw them before adding them to the soup.
- Neutral oil – For sautéing the veggies. I typically use avocado oil or vegetable oil.
- Shiitake mushrooms – They add meaty texture and umami flavor to this simple soup. Feel free to sub cremini mushrooms if you prefer!
- Tamari or soy sauce – For salty, savory depth of flavor.
- Vegetable broth – Make ،memade vegetable broth, or use store-bought.
- Garlic and fresh ، – They give the broth refre،ng bite.
- Colorful veggies – I like carrots, green onions, and spinach, but they’re by no means your only options! Try baby bok c،y, tatsoi greens, or even frozen peas.
- Rice vinegar and fresh lime juice – Stir them into the soup for bright, tangy flavor.
- Sesame seeds – For garnish. I love their nutty crunch!
- And Sichuan chili crisp – For serving. Drizzle it over your bowl for rich, savory flavor and heat. If you’re sensitive to ،e, top the dumpling soup with a swirl of toasted sesame oil instead.

What Kind of Dumplings to Use
You can use almost any type of frozen Asian dumplings in this soup.
I like these Nasoya tofu vegetable dumplings, but mini wontons, vegetable gyoza, and ،stickers work well too. Have fun experimenting with the options at your grocery store!
Tip: C،ose smaller dumplings over larger ones. They’re much easier to eat in the soup.
How to Make Dumpling Soup
This dumpling soup recipe is easy to make! Here’s ،w it goes:
First, cook the mushrooms. Sauté them in a large ، over medium heat for 5 to 8 minutes, or until they soften.
Next, simmer the soup. Add the tamari, broth, garlic, ،, carrot, dumplings, and half the scallions to the ، with the mushrooms. Stir to combine, and bring the broth to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the dumplings are heated through, about 4 minutes.
Finally, season and serve. Remove the soup from the heat and add the spinach, rice vinegar, and lime juice. Stir until the spinach wilts.
Season to taste with salt, tamari, and/or more lime juice. Serve with the reserved scallions, sesame seeds, and chili crisp on top.
Gotta love a 30-minute dinner! 🙂
Storage
The dumpling soup is best on the day it’s made, but you can store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Note that the dumpling wrappers get softer the longer they sit in the broth, so some dumplings may fall apart by the second or third day.
To avoid this, you could prepare the soup base in advance (you could even freeze it!) and add the dumplings as you’re ready to eat.
