Trader Joe’s Miso Wonton Soup Recipe

This warm comforting Trader Joes Miso Wonton Soup Recipe is made with ginger broth, frozen wontons, and spinach, ready in 15 minutes. Seeing the wontons plump up and float to the top of the steaming broth makes my stomach rumble every time. I make this easy hack whenever I need a quick weeknight dinner.

Restaurant-Quality At Home

I used to order takeout soup whenever I felt a cold coming on or just wanted something cozy. Then I realized I could assemble an incredibly similar bowl using just a few staples from Trader Joe’s.

The biggest lesson I learned was not to overcook the wontons. If you leave them boiling too long, the wrappers turn to mush and fall apart in the broth.

Trader Joes Miso Wonton Soup Recipe Ingredients

• 1 carton (32 oz) Trader Joe’s Miso Ginger Broth
• 1 bag (12 oz) Trader Joe’s Chicken Cilantro Mini Wontons
• 2 cups fresh baby spinach
• 2 green onions, thinly sliced
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp toasted sesame oil

How To Make Trader Joes Miso Wonton Soup Recipe

1. Heat the broth: Pour the Miso Ginger Broth into a medium pot and bring it to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.
2. Cook the wontons: Drop the frozen wontons directly into the boiling broth. Let them simmer for 3 to 5 minutes until they become tender and float to the surface.
3. Add the greens: Lower the heat and stir in the baby spinach, sliced green onions, soy sauce, and sesame oil.
4. Finish and serve: Simmer for just 1 minute until the spinach completely wilts, then ladle the hot soup into bowls.

Recipe Tips

• Keep it at a simmer: A rolling boil can easily tear the delicate wonton wrappers apart.
• Customize the greens: If you do not have spinach, roughly chopped bok choy or shredded cabbage works perfectly in the hot broth.
• Add some heat: A drizzle of chili crisp or a pinch of red pepper flakes gives the mild soup a nice kick.

What To Serve With Miso Wonton Soup

This light soup pairs wonderfully with a side of steamed edamame or a crispy scallion pancake. You can also serve it alongside vegetable spring rolls for a complete takeout-style meal.

How To Store

Store leftover soup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. The wontons will absorb some broth and soften further as they sit. I do not recommend freezing the cooked soup because the wonton wrappers will disintegrate when reheated.

FAQs

Can I use a different type of broth?

Yes, you can use regular chicken or vegetable broth. Just whisk in two tablespoons of white miso paste to get that classic flavor.

Do I need to thaw the wontons first?

No, you should add the wontons straight from the freezer to the hot broth. Thawing them first will make them stick together and tear.

Can I add noodles to this soup?

Absolutely. Cooked ramen or udon noodles make excellent additions if you want a heavier meal.
