BÚN THANG
The base of Bún Thang is a clear and delicate chicken broth.
It starts with chicken stock, but what makes it special is the addition of dried squid, lightly toasted until fragrant and slightly charred, then washed and added to the broth. This gives a subtle depth that’s hard to describe but very important.
Homemade Pho (Two-Day Comfort Broth)
This homemade pho is made with a slow-cooked beef broth, simmered for hours and rested overnight for a clean, rich flavor. Using charred onion, ginger, and warm spices, this Vietnamese beef noodle soup develops deep aroma and a naturally gelatin-rich texture. This two-day method may take time, but it creates a comforting, authentic bowl of pho worth every step.
