wonton soup

Chinese dumpling broth

Wonton soup is a Chinese dish of broth with dumplings, typically pork or shrimp wrapped in thin dough.

The wontons float in a light, often chicken-based soup, sometimes with noodles, bok choy, or scallions.

A staple of Chinese-American restaurant menus: I'll have the wonton soup to start.
