Vietnamese Pho For Uncle Roger

  • My fourth and FINAL attempt to achieve the Uncle Title. And I've chosen an incredibly difficult dish to make. But, I truly believe this might earn me Uncle Roger's coveted title. Vietnamese pho is perhaps the most famous noodle soup in the world.
    I want to give a massive thanks to Thuy Diem Pham. I had to do my research on this one, and even though I may have still made a few mistakes, hopefully Uncle Roger will appreciate the diligence. I'm linking the recipe below as well as her Instagram handle.

    This was a great video nick! Being south Vietnamese, I can confirm he got most parts right! The only things I would change is no radish used in the broth, don’t dunk noodles in pho broth- you always cook it separate to not dilute or “cloud” the broth, also use more fish sauce!!! and more herbs like green onion, sliced white onions and cilantro to garnish the broth and add more flavor to it. I also personally add hoisin and Siracha sauce directly to my broth haha.

    @richardtly 2 года назад +1691

    As a Vietnamese person growing up on pho my whole life, my kudos to Nick, you hit the majority of elements: charring the onions and garlic, heating up the spices, blanching the bones and meat, going low and slow. That fall off the bone moment, chef's kiss!
    Things I would do different: I don't cook the noodles in the broth, or if I do, it's with a separate amount of broth that I don't use in the final bowls, because cooking the noodles in the broth clouds it up, and actually may take away from the beefy flavor, after all that previous effort to keep it clear! I cook the noodles separate and strain them well to minimize any impact on the broth.
    I'm Vietnamese of south descent, and we put a lot more accoutrements at the end, a little finely sliced green onion, cilantro, and onion to further enhance the broth, and in addition to Thai basil and bean sprouts there are some other select Asian greens that can really make the broth pop even more. Nick made a more northern style pho, which some prefer for it's simplicity and focus on the main elements.
    I've really enjoyed your pursuit of the uncle title Nick, best of luck!

    As a Vietnamese who has obsessively perfected my own phở recipe, good job, Nick!
    There are a few things in the video that I feel like he can improve:
    1. We don’t use daikon in our phở broth: although daikon is good to add into the broth for umami flavour, it has a unique scent. Because of this scent, it is used specifically to flavour a different dish called hủ tiếu. If you want to add umami to phở, you can either use MSG or chicken bullion.
    2. Fish sauce is a must and you must add a lot: phở broth seasoning consists of a tiny bit of salt, MSG, and a lot of fish sauce to create that magical phở smell. The more expensive the fish sauce, the better the broth smells and tastes.
    3. Don’t grate your rock sugar cube, man! It is sugar, it will dissolve into the broth.
    4. Don’t dunk the noodles into the broth: by doing so, you release the starch from the noodles into the broth and will make it cloudy. Instead, have a separate pot of hot water to dunk your noodles and drain well before you put them into the bowl.
    5. Bean sprouts: there are 2 schools of phở in VN. The Northern style does not have any extra herbs or vegetables. They eat straight up phở by itself. The Southern style is where you get a plate of bean sprouts and a garden of herbs to accompany your bowl of phở.
    In most phở restaurants, bean sprouts are not added into the soup. They are served either fresh or blanched on a separate plate. When you eat the soup, you have a choice to add as much or as little sprouts into your soup as you like. Also, by keeping it separately, the phở broth is not diluted by the juice from the sprouts.
    5. Accoutrements: phở is served with paper-thin slices of white onions, finely chopped green onions and cilantro on top and a lot of them. This mixture is there to enhance the fragrance of phở. In the US, thin slices of habaneros are served on the side to add extra heat to the broth whereas in Vietnam, we have a variety of bird’s eye chilli by themselves, pickled, or finely chopped in vinegar.
    Because of the herbs and spices, Phở is a healing dish to nurture people who have cold, flu, or covid. The essence of Nick’s phở is there and with some tweaking, I believe he can create a very good pot of phở in the near future.

      @kennethphamdao4186 2 года назад +25

      This is an excellent explanation, right down to the difference between northern and southern style pho. Although to further add on I would say that souther style pho is much more fragrant and sweeter. Also around central vietnam I tend to see a lot of fried bread dough to accompany the pho, but I’m sure you can explain that better than me lol

    • @vin10954

    As some regular old Vietnamese guy whos eaten infinite bowls of pho in his life. Fish sauce is NOT optional. you NEED fishsauce otherwise it will be bland. I've had a lot of bland pho too and it was because there wasn't enough fish sauce. don't grate your rock sugar man, just throw it in there, its sugar its gonna go to the same place, your stomach. I've also never seen daikon Radish inside of pho, but that sounds like an okay idea never really put that into practice unless it was chicken ramen. but i digress.
    Don't cook noodles in the broth man, because like ramen, there is some extra starch inside the noodles that you do not want in your final broth, and then it'll get kind of thick, there is a noticeable difference. you also shouldn't put the limes in the broth, you serve it on the side and the customer would squeeze it in there themselves, because if you leave the lime inside the broth, it'll go bitter. i usually go for green onions as a garnish, as well as some beansprouts on the side, and i also use thinly sliced onions in the broth too. I'm talking like i can see through the slices thin. I cant speak for all the other Vietnamese people out there but I remember getting a whole untrimmed piece of filet mignon at the asian market and slicing that really thin to put on top of the pho. for Pho Dac Biet, we usually put tripe in there, and some times for Bo Vien we use the meatballs. My family is from the South, so there's got to be a balance 8/10. good luck becoming an uncle
    Edit: IF anyone watched the recent uncle roger video I told you so! congratulations Nick!!! This man begged until the man finally gave him the title

      Im also a Vietnamese here. My family usually cooks Pho without fish sauce. It is mainly because cooking broth with fish sauce for a long period of time usually cause a slight sour aftertaste + darken the broth. We usually leave the fish sauce on the side for whoever would like to add it into their bowl, not adding it in while the Pho is cooking. If you use enough bones, salt, and other ingredients, it shouldn’t taste bland. If you prefer to use fish sauce in Pho while cooking, do not add too much as it will darken the broth. It is usually best to add it in towards the end of the cooking process. This is same with MSG, adding it towards the end of the cooking process helps prevent the sour aftertaste.

      @vkqtran4721 Год назад

      If you’re going to put fish sauce in the pho, use it as a condiment for when you’re eating it. It’s not a good idea to use it as an ingredient while you’re cooking it as you will make the broth bitter and weird tasting.

    90% correct. Only 3 things to be noticed:
    1. The lime is only added when served. Cooking it make the broth bitter.
    2. Fish sauce is a must. It makes broth deeper.
    3. If you cook the noodle in the broth, it will make the broth dirty.

    Wow! Impressive! If you want to use the marrowbones (result in a more fragrant broth), One other tip I usually use when making Pho is to soak the bones in cool water mixed with salt and vinegar for 2 hours. Then, rinse. Then parboil the bones on high heat for 5 minutes. Then rinse again. It will helps remove most of the scums. When prepping the bones this way, I never have to worry about removing any scums during the cooking process.

    As a Vietnamese, I immediately click on this video as soon as I saw it.
    I don't know the first thing about the broth except for the fact that it is cooked with meat bones, but to be honest, the broth was clean and I am sure that it tasted good.
    However, I would prefer the broth to have some fish sauce that you listed as optional. Furthermore, I saw msg in the market but didn't get to see you use it in the video (maybe I missed it).
    With toppings, you had almost everything correct, but I have some advice. First, you need to have green onions as garnish (most Vietnamese Pho restaurants have it), and maybe add more Thai basil. Finally, just a tip, you can put the lime on the side like the dipping sauce, so people don't have to grab it from the hot bowl.
    Though I gave some advice, I still believe this Pho is amazing and you will surely get your "Uncle" title.

    Pho originally comes from the Northern part of Vietnam. As an Hanoian, my dad has been making homemade Pho for our family for over over 30 years. I’ll give you guys some small tips for Phở.
    1. You don’t need that many spices for delicious pho. 2 main spices you need are cinnamon and black cardamom (he used green in this recipe and I don’t know if I should be mad bc I have never tasted green cardamom lol). My dad adds star anise sometimes, but he never used cloves or fennel seeds.
    2. Pho is all about clear broth. Believe it or not, chicken bones and pork bones produced better color broth with less gamey smell. My dad rarely used beef bones for Pho, because when he used beef bones, he had to wait for the broth to cool down a bit and all the impurity sunk to the bottom to get the clear broth.
    3. No hoisin sauce, no sriracha, no limes, no thai basil. Authentic beef pho is enjoyed with garlic chili vinegar, chili sauce, green onions, and cilantro.
    I’m fully aware of the domination of Southern Pho in Northern America and in every country other than Vietnam. That’s why I never eat Pho in restaurant outside of Hanoi. If I crave it, I make my own.
