Gluten-Free Potstickers in Soup

One of my favorite snacks (or small meals) lately has been this simple soup. It is so easy to make and is ready in about 15 minutes. We use premade gluten-free potstickers and whip up a simple Asian style broth to pour over the microwave steamed potstickers. Really satisfying!

Ingredients

We always have Feel Good Foods gluten-free potstickers stocked up in the freezer. I love them on their own with the dipping sauce, but lately I’ve been using them in this simple and satisfying soup.

To make the Asian style broth, we will need:

  • chicken or vegetable stock
  • tamari
  • sesame oil
  • garlic
  • ginger
  • chives

As you can see, I usually choose organic products when I can as well as gluten-free. I also like to make up more broth than I will use, so that I can freeze it for the next time a craving for potstickers in soup hits.

Making the Soup

This soup is so simple to whip up. Basically use four cups of broth, chunks of peeled garlic and ginger, dried chives, tamari and sesame oil. We are going to strain the solids after the soup cooks, so there is no need to dice or mince them. Just crush the garlic and add chunks of the peeled ginger.

Bring all soup ingredients to a boil and simmer on low for 10 – 12 minutes. Then remove ginger, garlic cloves, and chives by pouring through a heat safe mesh strainer into a large pyrex measuring cup.

Meanwhile, steam the frozen potstickers in the microwave with a little water, covered, for about two minutes. I usually use two potstickers per half a cup of broth. Pour broth over cooked potstickers in a bowl.

Sometimes one of the potstickers might bust open into the soup. But I don’t mind because you still get the yummy noodles plus all the veggies just end up in the soup broth.

Enjoy your quick and simple potstickers in soup! You may also like Cauliflower Leek Potato Soup, Meatless Mexican Pozole Verde, or one of my faves – Chicken Tortilla Soup.

You get one life - do your best to ENJOY IT! So hi, I'm Deana. This food blog is all about cooking wholesome real food and developing gluten-free recipes for some of our favorite comfort foods. I had to start eating gluten-free in 2010, then cut dairy and casein (except for the occasional Parmesan) in 2014. We learned A2 casein (goat, sheep and buffalo milk) is easier to digest than the predominate A1 form in cow milk. So we brought back goat milk dairy into our recipes in 2016. Thank goodness, right! So I'm kind of a science nerd, too. In the '90s, I earned an undergrad degree in biochemistry from The University of Texas at Austin. Hook 'em! Then followed up with a PhD in biochemistry and a law degree from the University of Houston. I recently earned a certificate in genomics/sequence analysis from Johns Hopkins University, where I also took a very cool food microbiology course. Currently, I'm learning about the microbiome and gut health. And trying to come up with healthy recipes to feed those gut bugs! #feedthegutbugs
