Equipment

  • stock pot

Ingredients
  

Seasoning and Oil

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or coconut oil or butter
  • 3 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • kosher salt
  • pepper

Soup Ingredients

  • 8 ounces sliced shiitake mushrooms
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable stock
  • 2 cups water
  • cup thinly sliced scallions plus more for sprinkling
  • 12 ounces frozen potstickers or dumplings
  • furikake seasoning for serving

Instructions
 

Cooking Steps

  • Heat the olive oil in a stock pot over medium-low heat. Add in the garlic, ginger and mushrooms. Stir and cook until the mushrooms soften, about 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Pour in the stock, water, sesame oil and soy sauce. Bring the mixture to a simmer - taste the broth here to see if it has enough flavor. If not, add a pinch of salt until you get the desired savory flavor.
  • Once the broth is simmering, add in the potstickers. Cook for 3 minutes (or longer, if the package directions call for it), until the potstickers are cooked through.
  • Serve immediately with extra scallions, soy sauce, sesame oil and furikake seasoning for topping.

Notes

These leftovers only last about 24 hours in the fridge as the potstickers begin to break down. This isn’t a great meal to prep ahead of time for that reason!
