Ingredients
Dumplings : I love the frozen Thai Vegetable Gyoza from Trader Joe’s. You can also use wonton, pot stickers or dumplings. Costco also sells a big bag of these, which can be used for several meals. I often stock few bags in the freezer.
Broth : Trader Joe's Miso Ginger Broth is my favorite broth to use in this recipe. It is healthy, healing, warming and therapeutic.
Vegetables : To amp the nutrients, I add mix of colorful chopped veggies. Chopped red cabbage and red bell peppers, shredded carrots add good vitamin boost to this soup. I am also using onion for flavor and mushrooms for meaty texture and burst of umami.
Flavoring and garnishes : Minced ginger and garlic add wonderful savory flavors to the soup broth. Fresh lime juice adds wonderful zest and pop of freshness. Chili Garlic Paste adds a nice spicy kick. I like to garnish this soup with cilantro leaves , green onions and sesame seeds.
Substitutions
Dumplings : I am using vegetable dumplings but you can easily buy them filled with ground pork, shrimps, ground chicken or beef. You can also use wontons, dumplings, or pot-stickers.
Broth : You can substitute Miso Broth with any other vegetable or chicken broth. If you do, add couple tablespoons of soy sauce, scallions, celery and bay leaf for the flavoring.
Veggie Mix : Use whatever veggies you like in this soup. baby bok choy, broccoli, spinach, kale leaves or zucchini are great options. Other herbs like rosemary, thyme or fresh parsley also can be used for garnishes.
