WonTon Soup

By GratefulSea

This version is a bit spicier than others. It was posted on AllRecipes.com by SunnyDaysNora, who said that cooking the wontons in water, rather than broth, keeps the broth clear.

Ingredients

• 8 cups chicken broth
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 teaspoons sesame oil
• 2 teaspoons rice wine vinegar
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• 1-1/2 teaspoons chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha®)
• salt to taste
• 8 cups water
• 20 wontons, fresh or frozen
• optional: bok choy
• optional: bean sprouts

Preparation

Step 1

Combine chicken broth, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, chile-garlic sauce, and salt in a large pot over medium heat; bring to a simmer and cook until hot, about 10 minutes.

While the broth simmers, bring water to a boil in a separate pot. Cook wontons in boiling water until heated through, about 5 minutes. Remove from water with a slotted spoon and add to the soup.
