Notes

If you have leftovers, let the soup cool completely and transfer it to an airtight container. Store it in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, warm it gently on the stove until heated through. You can make a vegetarian version by using vegetable dumplings and swapping chicken broth for vegetable broth. Feel free to add more veggies like carrots or mushrooms for extra nutrition.
