Ingredients

  • 3-4 wontons homemade or store-bought
  • 1 serving wonton noodles (fresh or dried)
  • 2 bok choy (optional)

Soup

  • 2 cups water
  • 1 tsp vegetable bouillon
  • 1 tsp mushroom seasoning
  • drizzle sesame oil
  • pinch white pepper (optional)

Instructions

Noodles

  • If using fresh noodles that are clumped together in the packaging, separate so the noodles aren't in a clump when cooked. Then, add to boiling water and boil noodles according to package directions.
  • Drain noodles and rinse with cold water to remove excess starch. Set aside.

Soup

  • Mix bouillon and mushroom seasoning with water in a small pot (hot water from a kettle preferred), then drizzle in the sesame oil and stir in the pinch of white pepper. Cover the pot and bring to a boil.
  • Add your bok choy, if using. Allow to boil for a few minutes.
  • Add your wontons. Immediately upon dropping into the soup, mix to ensure the wontons don't stick to the bottom of the pot. Turn down the heat to medium-low so the wontons don't break.
  • Boil wontons according to package directions. When fully cooked, the wrappers should be translucent and the wontons will be floating on the surface.

Assembly

  • To serve, add your wonton noodles to a bowl.
  • Place your bok choy on top of the noodles. Use a spoon when transferring the wontons from the pot to the noodles to avoid breakage.
  • Pour the hot soup into the bowl and mix the noodles to loosen them up.
