Chicken Pho（鶏肉のフォー）

Noodles called pho are topped with soup seasoned with fish sauce, chicken, and coriander. It is a very aromatic dish.

Pho is the most popular Vietnamese dish.

In Vietnam, where rice production is thriving, you can eat it all over the city, including hotels, restaurants, and food stalls.

However, in Vietnam, people rarely make and eat pho at home. The eating out culture is developing.

It’s so easy to make that anyone can make it at home if they have the ingredients. I made it for the first time, but I was surprised that it was easier to make than I imagined! It takes less time than making spaghetti.

There are two main types of pho soup.

Phở bò is a beef-based soup topped with beef, and Phở gà is a chicken-based soup topped with chicken.

The soup is clear and has a light taste as you can see. When the soup is ready, add the boiled pho.

The basic ingredient is green onions, but you can add basil, mint, coriander, bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, chives, lime and other toppings to your liking.

What is the difference between pho and rice vermicelli?

The main ingredient in both is rice flour. Pho is made by dissolving rice flour in water, spreading it on a steamer like a crepe, and cutting the dough into stripes.

Rice vermicelli is shaped like pasta by putting the dough into a container with holes and pushing it out.
