Comforting Wonton Soup

Follow Jasmine: https://www.instagram.com/jasmineandtea

This was always one of my favorite soups to order from my local Chinese restaurant growing up and now I like to make it at home!

The most important component here is the broth–it’s the base of the soup so it makes or breaks the dish! I HIGHLY recommend making homemade chicken broth. If you only have boxed chicken broth, add a bouillon cube for extra flavor. Or, even better, add chopped raw chicken with bones to the broth and simmer for a while for extra flavor.
