If you love the taste of wontons, but hate those crunchy bits in the broth, try this recipe for wonton soup instead.
It’s still as good or even better than your favorite Chinese dish.
You can use it as a base to make other dishes with if you have any leftover ingredients.
You could also simply serve it by itself.
However, I like to serve a bowl of rice with it.
6. Japanese Clear Onion Soup
Packed with flavor, this Japanese clear onion soup makes a great base for any entree.
It’s also one of the most popular dishes in all of Japan and is especially popular at Okonomiyaki restaurants.
Cook onions and garlic until they’re fragrant and caramelized.
Then add canned tomatoes, sautéed onions, and ground beef to create an incredibly flavorful base.
Then just drizzle over your favorite sauce (or use a mix if you prefer) and simmer away!

This soup is a Korean staple, and most of us prefer it hot.
It’s known to be an energy-boosting dish that packs heat.
Fortunately, the recipe doesn’t require the stovetop.
It takes only 20 minutes to make this classic broth and contains fresh veggies, which are perfect for summer.

The meaty oxtail is cooked in the slow cooker with aromatics, vegetables, and spices.
It’s then simmered until tender, making this a hearty winter soup.

12. Potsticker Soup With Thai Coconut Curry Flavor
Here’s another soup that’ll blow your mind.
To make this, you’ll use a basic chicken stock base to flavor the broth.

Harusame soup is a traditional dish from Japan.
It’s made with thin noodles, sweet tomatoes, and soft fish.
You can serve it with katsuobushi or chashu to make it more Japanese.
I like to serve it with the yummy fishy topping but you can add whatever you prefer.
If you’re not familiar, katsuobushi is a type of dried bonito flake.
They’re very similar to sardines, but they’re smaller (about 1/8 inch).
Chashu is another popular topping for harusame soup.
This hearty dish calls for the chicken shank, which is usually served in restaurants.
16. Tom Yum Soup
If you’re looking for a flavorful soup that everybody will love, look no further.
Tom yum is like a Thai version of what you eat in Bangkok, with the same red curry paste used to flavor curries.
It adds such a deep and complex flavor to this soup, which will make your taste buds dance with excitement!
17. Thai Clear Soup With Chicken And Tofu
This one-pot Thai soup is both easy and can feed a crowd.
It’s made with clear broth, which means you won’t need to worry about overcooking the veggies.

This makes for an unbelievably creamy soup that tastes amazing.
Packed with protein, vitamins, and minerals, it is also loaded with antioxidants.
So although it’s healthy, it sure doesn’t taste unhealthy!
18. Dumpling Soup
Dumplings are always a good choice for soup because you can easily make multiple batches without changing the recipe.
Plus, they’re hard to mess up.
The thing that makes dumplings really great is how they absorb the broth and become soft while they cook.
This soup has so much flavor with just four ingredients.
It’s sweet, savory, and comforting all in one bowl.
19. Korean Chicken Soup
This thick and hearty soup is made with chicken, barley, carrots, red pepper flakes, garlic, and ginger.
It’s spicy and savory from the red pepper flakes.
It also has a hearty satisfying flavor from the rice and chicken.
Best of all, this soup is super easy to make!
So if you want a warm bowl of comfort food on a chilly night, it’s your best bet.
20. Miso Soup
This recipe is one of my go-to winter soups, and I use it as a base for all sorts of Japanese recipes.
The combination of miso paste, chicken stock, and carrots makes this soup a huge hit.
You can swap out the veggies depending on what you have on hand.
If you like your soup with a savory flavor, use onions or garlic instead of carrots.
Or add in some shiitake mushrooms for some meaty umami goodness!
21. Hibachi Mushroom Onion Soup
I once had a friend who told me she couldn’t live without soup for lunch.
She would have it in the morning and throw on some chicken or turkey sandwiches, then stay up late in the afternoon to make enough for dinner.
That’s how I feel about this soup.
It’s creamy, garlicky, earthy, and super flavorful.
You really can’t go wrong with that combination!
Serve it over rice with a side of fresh veggies for a fresh and filling meal.
22. Cabbage Egg Drop Soup
If you love egg drop soup as much as I do, this is the recipe for you.

It’s just like the real deal, but easier!
23. Tantanmen
Tantanmen is another popular Chinese dessert that’s surprisingly easy to make.

The mixture of sugar and water contains the secret ingredient – sweetened condensed milk.
So, why not give this recipe a try?
You might just find your newfound love of sweets changing into an addiction.
24. Vegetarian Pho Soup
Pho is a popular Vietnamese noodle soup made with beef broth.
But if you need something meatless, this recipe has you covered.
It’s super hearty, packed full of veggies and protein, and loaded with flavor.
The beef bones provide a wonderful meaty flavor for the broth.
I recommend using a mix of beef trimmings from your butcher to get the best texture.
Be sure they’re well-trimmed so they cook evenly and don’t fall apart in your soup.
25. Soondubu Jjigae
Soondubu Jjigae is a Korean stew made with beef and vegetables.
