A friend ventured into San Francisco the other day and posted a picture on her Facebook page of a bowl of Wonton Soup that she ate while there. It looked so good, I knew I needed to make something like it... and soon!
I googled several different recipes and they were pretty basic... broth, noodles, green onions, soy sauce, etc. I thought some sliced mushrooms and bok choy would be nice in it. The more I thought about it, the more I wanted that soup. I took a mental inventory of what I had in the house and decided I could accomplish something similar without having to go to the store (always a plus). I made the soup for dinner the same day I saw the Wonton Soup on Facebook!
Although my gardener hesitates to call a meal a meal unless there's meat involved, this turned out to be a light and delicious soup. One that I'll make again - maybe with some bok choy next time.
This looks really delicious. Light and comforting. Soups just like this one can really hit the spot.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing it.

Looks delicious! That's one of our favorite soups to get when we order Chinese food!
ReplyDeleteI love wonton soup! Those super tasty dumplings are the best!
ReplyDeleteThis soup does look delicious, Karen. I think I have most of the ingredients in the cupboard too. We eat soup year around and prefer the lighter ones in the summer.
ReplyDeleteYour photo turned out so much better than when I made it a couple of months ago. And yes, these is a great soup for a light meal.
ReplyDeleteIt looks great, Karen! Makes me want to go back to SF!
ReplyDeleteI'm not Japanese but this comfort food to me. GREG
