Easy Gyoza Soup
Description
Easy Gyoza Soup starts with a flavorful broth combining dashi stock, sake, soy sauce, and a touch of salt. Napa cabbage and shiitake mushrooms add a mild sweetness and earthy depth when cooked until tender. The gyoza dumplings are boiled in separate water until they float, indicating doneness, then transferred carefully to the broth to finish cooking gently. This process keeps the dumplings intact and prevents sticking.
The toasted sesame oil added at the end imparts a subtle nutty aroma, complementing the fresh scallions sliced finely. The resulting soup is light but satisfying, with delicate broth highlights balancing the savory gyoza and tender vegetables.
This soup suits a light meal or a starter alongside more substantial dishes. It reheats well and can be modified by adding other vegetables or adjusting seasoning to taste.
Ingredients
- 3 cups dashi
- 2 tablespoons sake
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 150 grams Napa cabbage (sliced into strips)
- 50 grams shiitake mushrooms trimmed and sliced, fresh
- 12 gyoza dumplings
- 30 grams scallions (thinly sliced)
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil toasted
Instructions
- To make the soup broth, add 3 cups dashi, 2 tablespoons sake, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and ¼ teaspoon salt to a pot and bring to a boil.
- Add 150 grams Napa cabbage, the white parts of the scallions, and 50 grams fresh shiitake mushrooms. Cook the vegetables until the cabbage is tender (~10-12 minutes).
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 12 gyoza dumplings. Stir right away to prevent the dumplings from sticking together.
- When the water has returned to a boil, and the gyoza have floated to the surface (~1 minute), transfer them to the soup with a slotted spoon.
- Continue cooking the gyoza in the soup for another 2-3 minutes. If you are using frozen dumplings, you'll want to cook them for a little longer.
- Finish the gyoza soup by adding 30 grams scallions and 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil, and serve it by dividing it between 2 large bowls.
