This soup was good, but not great. The broth was a little bland for my taste, and the dumplings were a bit too dense. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out delicious. The dumplings are my favorite part - they're so soft and fluffy. I usually add a little bit of garlic and onion to the broth for extra flavor.
