We love this soup! It is light, and very delicious with all the flavors we love in Asian cooking. It is super easy to make and only takes about 30 minutes to get it on the table! What are you waiting for? Enjoy!

How To Make bonnie's asian spring soup

Step 1

Clean the raw shrimp and remove the tails. Cut each shrimp in half. Return the shrimp to the refrigerator until needed.

Step 2

Chop the vegetables and place them in piles on the cutting board. Slice carrots and celery thin. Cut peas in three pieces. Knife cute the Napa cabbage into thin strips. I remove most of the white part of the Napa cabbage. You will be adding each small pile to the soup as directed.

Fill a soup pot with 6 cups of Better Bouillon chicken broth and bring to a gentle boil. Add the bay leaf, sesame seed oil and soy sauce to the pot.
Step 4

Add the sliced carrots and cook two minutes Then add the chopped celery hearts and cook two minutes. Finally, add the knife-cut Napa cabbage leaves, snap peas and chives to the pot and cook two minutes. This is where you season with salt and pepper to taste.

Add the shrimp to the pot and cook ONLY UNTIL SLIGHTLY PINK. 1 to 2 minutes. Then serve. Enjoy!
