I have seen my vietnamese mother break down and cry on the kitchen floor when her pho broth came out cloudy! If my mom saw this broth, she would have a pho-king heart attack!
Seriously. Why even bother making it this way. You have to leave your house to get the ingredients anyways. Just stop by a pho restaurant instead of the grocery store.
"its not a short cut, short cuts still get you to the right destination...if you follow these short cuts you will be in the ocean.." Straight wisdom right there
In clinical trials people who say they get headaches from MSG didn't get headaches unless they were told they were eating MSG. And even if they didn't have MSG if they were told it was in there, they got a headache.
@joshuas193 My dad loved a Chinese place when he was younger(he took me there a year ago), but he was never able to really go because they used msg and his mom was allergic. That place was so good
Take this principle as Uncle Roger's wisdom for "What I do if I cannot get authentic Asian food and ingredients in my area?" He has said this in so many weejios now. Niece and nephew should know it all too well.
The city I went to college in had a great Vietnamese restaurant in it. Cheap and delicious food, perfect for college students. It is called Pho-King (yes, hilarious). The grandparents cooked and their kids did the front of house stuff. I live 30 minutes away from it now and can't get there enough, but when I was in college I went once a week lol. They had chicken pad-thai that was to die for and their pho was perfect for winter (in Wisconsin soooo nice hardy and warm delicious soups are a must). Rachael Ray should stick to American family meals.
GOOD DAMMIT SHE WAS AT GOT BACK IN THE DAY... NOPE hOT NOW... I JUST DON'T THINK ANYTHING IS GOOD so much WEIGHT Highyaaaaa!! Ain't now how to spell lol forgive me
I had to do a Google image search because I remembered her as being attractive. The Wall spares no one. She looks like the women I always see at Home Goods store filling their cart and their home with kitschy crap...and signs...lots of signs
the broth does tbh, if you use a pressure cooker you can replicate fairly well the 8 hours of simmerig the broth in around 1 1/2 to 2 hours. thats as quick as i would go
Technically, you can make a half way decent one using Vietnamese pho mix. I don’t do it that way except when using the vegetarian packaged seasoning pack. It isn’t as amazing as the way I was taught by my mother in law but it isn’t terrible. This recipe is scary. She would have done better to “cheat” using the packaged seasoning lol
The meaning of 8 hours boiling the broth is that you can extract all the best flavor in the bones and spices into the broth. Pressure cooker can speed thing up but actually worsen the whole flavor of the dish. Don't do that, the key of most Vietnamese foods is slowly cook to make them taste the best they can. Don't trim off the time.
It's also a myth that msg gives headaches-- it's naturally found in so much food that it was determined to be a hypochondriac thing caused by racist anti-Asian sentiment spreading the idea around that msg is bad for you
Support your local Pho restaurants! They make the life-giving miracle that is Pho correctly and it will cost less than making whatever that frankensoup RR made was.
They give you a gallon of food for $6, it's going to cost less than making this, and then going to buy it at the restaurant anyways so you can eat something edible.
What's funny is I took my brother to a diner in my town, I didn't fucking know it got turned into a Vietnamese restaurant. I don't even like Asian food, but I was there and said "fuck it, I'll get some Pho". I couldn't stop eating it, I can't stop thinking about it. I'll probably go back this Friday
I'm into saving money, but Pho is really labour intense, so unless you're having a Pho Party, with a lot of guests, just go your local Vietnamese Restaurant and order it.
Tricky thing is many vn restaurants cheap out and make pho the shitty way. Absolute disappointment everytime I eat those - then I stare at the staff until we have a mutual understanding that they're not doing it right.
It’s not labor intensive! Throw bones in crock pot with water and add spices. Let it go a day or 2. Then portion and freeze. Now u have some quick meals over the next couple months.
@@kingofallworlds As a Vietnamese who has lived overseas for several years, I agree that Pho in other countries taste much differently from our original. However, the main reason for this is that you cannot find the exact same ingredients we have in Vietnam to make that same taste. Plus, even in my country, Pho's taste varies and it depends on the region you're living in. Ha Noi's Pho and Ho Chi Minh City's Pho are totally not alike at all, from the ingredients, cooking methods to side herbs and all that.
Authentic Pho takes time and techniques to bring out the best in the broth, just like ramen. Our pho can take up to 20 hours for preparing the stock, and yes, it should be umami and transparent, packed with favors and medicinal fragrance
I live in Oklahoma City. There are many Amazing Vietnamese restaurants here that serve Pho. I know how to cook American classics, I leave the Pho to the professionals! Besides, sometimes it's More satisfying having something prepared by an expert rather than disappointing yourself with your own messed up version. Lol
@@MichaelOKC some things are easy, you can learn to make it at home. Some it's just not gonna happen. Thai curry? Rendang? you get some good spice paste and fry it in coconut milk, you can't lose. Something that requires really careful hours-long broth preparation and esoteric ingredients, maybe just let someone else do it. I don't have a tandoor, I don't even attempt making that kind of indian food. Maybe if you have a grill, sure.
As a Vietnamese Nephew , dear Uncle Roger I can say we certainly don't have AND use BAY LEAF because we don't plant it , also ditched the goddamn chilli jam because it GROSS 😊 P/s : I just can't stop laughing whenever Uncle Roger roasted Jamie Oliver because his cooking makes my parents and ancestors exclaimed HAIYAA !!! ❤
These chefs could avoid some criticism by saying it’s a dish inspired by pho or ramen or whatever, and not the actual dish. Acknowledge they’re taking liberties with the traditional recipe and mention how the real dish is actually made.
Unfortunately, they solemnly believe and does not recognise that their random "creativity" is NOT the ACTUAL dish, And a blind eye towards the fact that they are not capable of altering traditional dishes.
That's kinda my whole thing. I mess around with stuff because I'm lazy/bought the wrong thing, but I kinda try to nudge it in the direction of the originating dish. Like, *why* are we adding bay leaf, which wouldn't be in the original recipe? What flavors are we teasing out?
I know right? I've never had Pho at a Vietnamese restaurant but I have had it at a Thai restaurant and it's such a unique and specific taste. Saying you can just do whatever sounds so wrong even to my American ears...
It's all your fault, Uncle Roger: I watched you yesterday then had a craving for Phở Tái, Nạm, Bò Viên. I could have made it myself and do better than this video, but decided to take your suggestion and support my favourite local Vietnamese restaurant. Cảm ơn!!! ❤ you, Uncle Roger.
Its all their "cultural appropriation", now they cant make decent food without "stealing" it. Youd think they wouldve had enough sense to just "culturally appreciate" the genuine stuff and enjoy whats available without changing it
As someone who’s culture she butchered by messing up pozole, my condolences to the Vietnamese community for this atrocity. We’re all victims of Rachel Ray 😅
Yeah, she seems really depressed compared to every other show I've seen her on. Signs that she's lost passion, a cry for help, or did she just f'ck it up in the name of 'anyone can do this'?
As someone who grew up in Westminster CA right next to little Saigon I completely agree! Lol when I worked in an office year's back our boss would always treat up to Pho every Friday
I’ve been making Pho for 30+ years. Yet every time I make Pho, I feel like I learn something new. My #1 recommendation is to soak the noodles for 1-2 hours then flash boil them between 20-30 seconds depending on the width of you noodles (they come small, med, large). Boiling enough noodles for one bowl at a time.
I’m not trying to be mean, but Rachel has the resources to learn and do this properly. She chooses to do the opposite. She has no respect or reverence for cultural cooking and social rules. She needs to stop. We don’t try to re-invent green bean casserole or macaroni pie.
You couldn't pay me to move closer to the city. Right now, the only thing i hear is the wooshing of my heart and the ringing in my ears. It's so quiet most times, I can hear the quiet fizzy popping of my soda sitting on the side table. I'll drive the 60 miles if i ever want to try it, thanks.
I’m not Vietnamese. I’m Italian. And this level of bastardisation was also done to Italian food and of course many other cultural cuisines. Uncle Roger you are doing gods work. I think I love you
Yup. I’m cuban. Everyone slathers jalapeño on Cuban food or make it Cuban inspired… just make the damn thing the way it is. For the record….we don’t eat spicy. Not traditionally
this really shows us all how "TV chefs" try to fancy up the process to make themselves look like The Authority. I really enjoy the cooking channel Adam Ragusea and he also shows how many "traditional" (ie, french) ideas are basically wankery (although he's too polite to say so), but seeing how Jamie and others add in fancy "jazz hands" to their process and basically fk everything up, whilst pretending it's amazing, it extremely amusing, and educational. thank you Uncle Roger for your honesty, something that is in short supply within the western world.
Adam Ragusea has to be one of the best cooking channels for home cooks, very respectful and also kind of cheating, except unlike Rachel, the food actually tastes like how it’s supposed to
@@trickster80 oh YES, love Adam. his macaron video is the best thing ever (even if he still chooses to say it wrong)_ i made those macarons and they were perfectly ugly and perfectly delcious.
Hats off to you, Uncle Roger, for getting all the facts correct. One small detail though, Pho in the South Vietnam would have bean sprouts, but not the one in the North. I was surprised when I moved to the South 10 years ago. But it actually tastes good too.

Not only did she fuck up the whole dish, but she wasted that gorgeous cut of sirloin she chopped up! Look at it before she boils it, those chunks have a beautiful marble to them, with a wonderful redness even after they're chopped. Those could have been juicy and delicious if spiced and cooked correctly and put in the right recipe, and she desecrated it by BOILING THE MEAT. What an absolute waste of that poor cow's life.
@@jerstah no, the sirloin is cut razor thin like hotpot meat before it is mixed into hot broth to cook it. The other cuts like tendon, flank steak, etc, are what is boiled. Boiling the sirloin makes you lose so much of the tenderness and flavor of the cut.
So to get it thin, you put the thawed piece of meat in the freezer for 30 minutes (roughly), just enough that it will firm up and hold its shape when you’re making the thin cuts.
Ik your pain Uncle Roger the way u & probably every Vietnamese feels about her Pho is how me & every Mexican felt when she made her version of Posole she went viral for it & had so many Mexicans reacting to her total disrespect of a Mexican staple.
"We can use base stock of anything we want" - me as Vietnamese: "then it can be anything you want, but please don't call it Pho". Also, you gotta char shallot and ginger first (not onion), no garlic. If you want to have garlic, it must be added later on with vinegar. One more thing, though it doesn't list in "must-have" ingredients but dried peanut worm is often used to strengthen the flavor while having clear broth (seaworm I think, I don't know its name in English). Oh by the way, NO THAI BASIL. Only spring onion and coriander (coriander is added during winter time). The last part triggered me most, the noodle doesn't look like "banh pho", it looks like "bun". Pho noodle should be thicker.
Me also as a Vietnamese person, you can put Thai basil as a garnish and use charred onions as part of your base. It's pho you can change the garnish, it's like how I like to add oil from leeks to it on my bowl. Then you can also add sawtooth coriander.
You must be from Northern VN. In South we put Thai basil, spring onion, bean sprouts, culantro (ngo gai), black pepper, hot pepper, lime juice, hoisin sauce and hot sauce in the bowl to enhance flavor. Also we add those herbs in pho all year round because it’s boring without them.
What’s sad about this is that if someone who never had pho before is going to think that THIS is how pho tastes like…🤦🏻♀️ Pho is VERY sacred. It’s all about the broth!
Exactly! You’re supposed to spend 3 hours of your life MINIMUM on that broth! It needs the bones! You can’t just throw in beef stock and call it a day!!
@@p-_-.b 3 hours minimum if you're making a really bad version. Restaurants usually spend 10-12 hours making it and even people I know making it at home spend close to 6 hours.
Sadly there’s a ton of people who were fooled by Food Network’s horrible knockoffs, to the point where they are disgusted when they see people from other countries cook their own cuisine.
@@opwave79 That's a fact! Preparation for authentic dishes sometimes requires still twitching protein. I saw an amazing fugu prep and cook video from Korea that has 33% dislikes. Why? Because the fish was "alive" until they dropped it in oil. These uninformed, uncultured swine are why we lose dishes to history.
I remember when someone got a Vietnamese exchange student as their new roommate in college. They tried to make pho but since they were buying stuff either on campus with the meal card or at Walmart they didn't have a lot of correct ingredients. She was very confused how pho turned into weird chicken noodle soup, but it was the thought that counted I guess. Now I understand why she was so confused when they presented the faux - pho. Uncle Roger would have been so mad
Pho is difficult to cook, and so it's not a home-cooked dish. The soul of pho is the broth, we had to simmer a lot of beef/pork bones for hours in addition to a lot of flavoring ingredients (nowadays there are seasoning packs available, but bone broth is irreplaceable) . This costs too much money and time. My mother is a very good cook, but she can't cook a good bowl of pho because she don't have time and money to buy ingredients will be more than buy 4 bowls for my family lol.
As a Vietnamese person, I literally got a headache from watching this person mess up pho this bad. I'm pretty sure if my bà nội saw this video, she would die on the stop from going into cardiac arrest.
LOL I very much enjoy her cooking show but it appears to me that she's limited to the ingredients available in a Toronto supermarket. And not gonna lie, he Pho looked pretty good, I'm down for it. Maybe add fish sauce and MSG.
@@mattroy3154 It probably is pretty good. But calling what she made Pho is basically a lie. "Pho inspired" would be much better and probably wouldn't have pissed off anyone.
As a Vietnamese, I confirm that she has forgot the very important flavor for Pho is Fish sauce and MSG If you cook any Vietnamese foods *N̲E̲V̲E̲R̲* forget the Fish sauce, it same like MSG, Fish sauce is king of flavor in Vietnamese foods

As a vietnamese, i find this is offensive and disturbing. uncle roger, u are representing Asia. keep doing it man you are great. and im still waiting you to roast Jamie when he make Phở
As a vietnamese, and a chef, I found this comment a complete overreaction. Making pho correctly is a laborious and time consuming process, if someone wants to deviate from the recipe and create an alternative approximation of the original recipe, let them. It's just food. There are a whole bunch of guides readily available on this very platform detailing the original process, so not as if this video will bastardize the dish for someone who really wants to try it in its original form. Even between Northern and Southern version of the dish, there are huge variations. These videos are meant as light hearted comedy, not food snobbery.
My mom isn’t Vietnamese, we’re actually arab, but my mom tried to make Pho one time, and the broth was very cloudy, you don’t realize how much she cried bro, and when she made it again a few days later, and it worked.. she literally jumped around the entire house in joy, never seen her happy in this marriage with my dad bro.💀😺
The biggest issue for meis that she clearly knows the correct way of doing things, because she makes references to the correct way through every step. She’s choosing to not do it correctly. If you “cheat” through every step of a recipe, it’s not the same dish
I'm convinced these "cooking" shows are simply trying to destroy other culture's dishes to make them more "American". It only takes a generation or two of only watching someone like Rachel Ray to think this is how all food is made. It's a form of control and a way to change history.
I once asked a Vietnamese friend for their Pho recipe. They said, "First you want to boil an ox tail for at least 24 hours as a base for your stock." and I said, "I'll just go to a restaurant, I'm far too lazy to spend more than a day making dinner." :D
But now we can also use instant pot for only 2 hours to get Pho base soup. Trust me, even restaurant wouldn't spend 24 hours to cook ox tail. They used dry base soup instead.

For those of you who say that Pho varies from region to region - This is true, but I can guarantee you won't find any Vietnamese putting GARLIC, BAY LEAF in Pho. For the spice, the cardamom we use is black cardamom, along with CINAMON (missing from the video), clove, star anise and sometimes dried orange peel. The noodle in the video isn't wrong, but it's not what we have in Vietnam, which is more similar to Ho Fun like a flat rice noodle, not round which would be Bún instead. The one in the video is more popular in the US with the Vietnamese diaspora there. This is something I think Uncle Roger got wrong as well. We also NEVER put herbs straight into Pho but have them on the side so people could pick out the ones they like. The quality of Pho is often judged by the clarity of the broth, a clear broth shows that the bones were cleansed properly and the spices were not burnt. The secret to making a good traditional Pho (Northern style) is to use Sá Sùng - a type of sea worm which would flavour the broth with umami, a natural MSG if you will, but they are expensive and hard to find to sometimes people just add MSG instead.
I was confused about her not using flat rice noodles as well because here in Melbourne Australia, all the Vietnamese restaurants use it for Pho. Also, the easy way to make Pho at home would be to buy these Pho "teabags", they look like giant teabags to make Pho soup.
As a pure Vietnamese living in singapore, I can't believe how americans messed up a very simple dish like pho. I might not say it as that simple but try to look up for the right ingredients and recipe before cooking. There's only two type of pho, one is beef and the other one is chicken. @chewiverseu I agree with you that you can't just put sea food in our traditional pho.
unfortunately, most americans tend to think like Racheal when she said " you can use what ever you want". Merika tends to take already estavlished concepts and ideas and fuck them into oblivion... then they tell everyone else that thats how it was supposed to go....

@@googleedood9721 as a Vietnamese that live in Viet Nam this pain me. Cause Pho is such a common food for us, so cheap and so simple to do if you don't need it to be restaurant quality.

Yea, sadly most American's will do what they want even when they know it isn't how the dish is supposed to be made; and a large portion of muricans are lazy cookers, so they want the least amount of work with the same results they got at the restaurant they tried.....it's just sad really.
As an authentic Hanoian, I found it completely horrifying when she said we could use sea food for the broth. Now I'm imagining my mom chasing me around the house with a broom stick on her hand, throwing curse words at me and looking like she is about to open the gates to hell herself if I dare put sea food into our family's Pho recipe. LMAO
Most people don't know this, but the only way you can truly judge how good Pho is, is by the broth. The broth is everything. Everything else that goes in is just a bonus. If the broth is bogus.. dont bother. Nothing else you put in it will save it.
I've had one good bowl of pho from a hole in the wall in SoCal. It's so true about the broth, it's truly the star of the dish. If it wasn't so expensive (ish) and time consuming, I'd make a few gallons of broth and just live on that for a week. My local Vietnamese places can't make pho to save their life....one of them makes a broth that tastes literally like dish water. Side note: I could really go for a banh mi right now, I love those so much.
@@Idividezero Definitely recommend an instant pot for time saving. Pho broth is done in around 2 hours and tastes just as good. It makes the lid smell like Pho though.

Take this principle as Uncle Roger's wisdom for "What I do if I cannot get authentic Asian food and ingredients in my area?" He has said this in so many weejios now. Niece and nephew should know it all too well.
The city I went to college in had a great Vietnamese restaurant in it. Cheap and delicious food, perfect for college students. It is called Pho-King (yes, hilarious). The grandparents cooked and their kids did the front of house stuff. I live 30 minutes away from it now and can't get there enough, but when I was in college I went once a week lol. They had chicken pad-thai that was to die for and their pho was perfect for winter (in Wisconsin soooo nice hardy and warm delicious soups are a must). Rachael Ray should stick to American family meals.
I mean it's words of someone with money who can just do that.
But sure. I guess.

I get that Rachel Ray's thing is "quick and easy" but some dishes, like Phở, don't lend themselves to "quick" methods.
the broth does tbh, if you use a pressure cooker you can replicate fairly well the 8 hours of simmerig the broth in around 1 1/2 to 2 hours. thats as quick as i would go
@@doubletapthatdotty4597 Trust me, pressure cooker just makes it faster, not better. You need to keep the broth clean
What I don't get it, why call it pho, if its not made correctly? Its probably a great noodle soup. Call it something else...
Technically, you can make a half way decent one using Vietnamese pho mix. I don’t do it that way except when using the vegetarian packaged seasoning pack. It isn’t as amazing as the way I was taught by my mother in law but it isn’t terrible. This recipe is scary. She would have done better to “cheat” using the packaged seasoning lol
The meaning of 8 hours boiling the broth is that you can extract all the best flavor in the bones and spices into the broth. Pressure cooker can speed thing up but actually worsen the whole flavor of the dish. Don't do that, the key of most Vietnamese foods is slowly cook to make them taste the best they can. Don't trim off the time.

@@jamiephilip79 monosodium glutamate
@@CoryKlim why add msg to the food?
@@jamiephilip79 It makes it taste better, your taste buds react to glutamate ions creating the sensation of a savory/umami flavor.
It's also a myth that msg gives headaches-- it's naturally found in so much food that it was determined to be a hypochondriac thing caused by racist anti-Asian sentiment spreading the idea around that msg is bad for you
Rachael ray and Jamie Oliver are both "theater" chefs. They don't know how to make food, they know how to look like they do
Support your local Pho restaurants! They make the life-giving miracle that is Pho correctly and it will cost less than making whatever that frankensoup RR made was.
They give you a gallon of food for $6, it's going to cost less than making this, and then going to buy it at the restaurant anyways so you can eat something edible.
I wish this was always true... Our local pho place uses base for thier broth BUT it's still local small business and still better than this garbage!
Pho is magical! I order in Pho whenever I get sick and it helps get rid of the sickness fast!!!!
What's funny is I took my brother to a diner in my town, I didn't fucking know it got turned into a Vietnamese restaurant. I don't even like Asian food, but I was there and said "fuck it, I'll get some Pho". I couldn't stop eating it, I can't stop thinking about it. I'll probably go back this Friday
Idk where you live but pho in California is pretty expensive.. I just make my own now
I'm into saving money, but Pho is really labour intense, so unless you're having a Pho Party, with a lot of guests, just go your local Vietnamese Restaurant and order it.
Tricky thing is many vn restaurants cheap out and make pho the shitty way. Absolute disappointment everytime I eat those - then I stare at the staff until we have a mutual understanding that they're not doing it right.
Or have instant pho. It can be pretty decent
It’s not labor intensive! Throw bones in crock pot with water and add spices. Let it go a day or 2.
Then portion and freeze. Now u have some quick meals over the next couple months.
@@kingofallworlds As a Vietnamese who has lived overseas for several years, I agree that Pho in other countries taste much differently from our original. However, the main reason for this is that you cannot find the exact same ingredients we have in Vietnam to make that same taste. Plus, even in my country, Pho's taste varies and it depends on the region you're living in. Ha Noi's Pho and Ho Chi Minh City's Pho are totally not alike at all, from the ingredients, cooking methods to side herbs and all that.
Preach 🙋
Authentic Pho takes time and techniques to bring out the best in the broth, just like ramen. Our pho can take up to 20 hours for preparing the stock, and yes, it should be umami and transparent, packed with favors and medicinal fragrance
người việt đây ròi
I live in Oklahoma City. There are many Amazing Vietnamese restaurants here that serve Pho. I know how to cook American classics, I leave the Pho to the professionals! Besides, sometimes it's More satisfying having something prepared by an expert rather than disappointing yourself with your own messed up version. Lol
And depending on the style and a hint of sweetness to it as well.
@@MichaelOKC what on earth is an american classic
@@MichaelOKC some things are easy, you can learn to make it at home. Some it's just not gonna happen.
Thai curry? Rendang? you get some good spice paste and fry it in coconut milk, you can't lose. Something that requires really careful hours-long broth preparation and esoteric ingredients, maybe just let someone else do it. I don't have a tandoor, I don't even attempt making that kind of indian food. Maybe if you have a grill, sure.

Tưởng bên mình là "Haizzz" chứ bạn.
These chefs could avoid some criticism by saying it’s a dish inspired by pho or ramen or whatever, and not the actual dish. Acknowledge they’re taking liberties with the traditional recipe and mention how the real dish is actually made.
Yeah. I feel like changing recipes or straying from tradition is fine, but don't act like it's accurate to how it's really made.
Unfortunately, they solemnly believe and does not recognise that their random "creativity" is NOT the ACTUAL dish, And a blind eye towards the fact that they are not capable of altering traditional dishes.
That's kinda my whole thing. I mess around with stuff because I'm lazy/bought the wrong thing, but I kinda try to nudge it in the direction of the originating dish.
Like, *why* are we adding bay leaf, which wouldn't be in the original recipe? What flavors are we teasing out?
And by not calling a New York steak a sirloin steak. Read the dammed label

I remember back when I watched her destroying Mexican Dish: Pozole. She did it again, she is an unstoppable "Chef" destroying international recipes.
Yo one time I made her enchiladas cause I had no idea and was way younger. Fucking rancid.
Its all their "cultural appropriation", now they cant make decent food without "stealing" it. Youd think they wouldve had enough sense to just "culturally appreciate" the genuine stuff and enjoy whats available without changing it
I don't think she's a trained chef, i think she's a home chef on TV.

I’ve been making Pho for 30+ years. Yet every time I make Pho, I feel like I learn something new. My #1 recommendation is to soak the noodles for 1-2 hours then flash boil them between 20-30 seconds depending on the width of you noodles (they come small, med, large). Boiling enough noodles for one bowl at a time.
I agree. I think thin noodles are more traditional but I prefer the wide noodles. (Edit: I'm wrong 😅)
Ive been frying eggs since I was 5. 21 years later I still learn a new trick or two. XD
Thank you for the tip, Cousin Doan!

That's how you cook with pho though. Boil the shit.
@@jerstah Yes... if it's thin slices of chuck or brisket or something. Sirloin, ESPECIALLY when cut that thick, is not to be boiled
@@jerstah no, the sirloin is cut razor thin like hotpot meat before it is mixed into hot broth to cook it. The other cuts like tendon, flank steak, etc, are what is boiled. Boiling the sirloin makes you lose so much of the tenderness and flavor of the cut.
So to get it thin, you put the thawed piece of meat in the freezer for 30 minutes (roughly), just enough that it will firm up and hold its shape when you’re making the thin cuts.

"We can use base stock of anything we want" - me as Vietnamese: "then it can be anything you want, but please don't call it Pho". Also, you gotta char shallot and ginger first (not onion), no garlic. If you want to have garlic, it must be added later on with vinegar. One more thing, though it doesn't list in "must-have" ingredients but dried peanut worm is often used to strengthen the flavor while having clear broth (seaworm I think, I don't know its name in English). Oh by the way, NO THAI BASIL. Only spring onion and coriander (coriander is added during winter time). The last part triggered me most, the noodle doesn't look like "banh pho", it looks like "bun". Pho noodle should be thicker.
You do char onion and you do use thai basil as a garnish and lastly the pho noodle she is using is already thick asf
can I use the tears and blood of American marines for the broth or not?
Me also as a Vietnamese person, you can put Thai basil as a garnish and use charred onions as part of your base. It's pho you can change the garnish, it's like how I like to add oil from leeks to it on my bowl. Then you can also add sawtooth coriander.
@it_me_ In America, pho noodles are usually thinner in size for some reason.
You must be from Northern VN. In South we put Thai basil, spring onion, bean sprouts, culantro (ngo gai), black pepper, hot pepper, lime juice, hoisin sauce and hot sauce in the bowl to enhance flavor. Also we add those herbs in pho all year round because it’s boring without them.

Pho is difficult to cook, and so it's not a home-cooked dish.
The soul of pho is the broth, we had to simmer a lot of beef/pork bones for hours in addition to a lot of flavoring ingredients (nowadays there are seasoning packs available, but bone broth is irreplaceable) . This costs too much money and time.

If you cook any Vietnamese foods *N̲E̲V̲E̲R̲* forget the Fish sauce, it same like MSG, Fish sauce is king of flavor in Vietnamese foods
That's why I have to be careful with Vietnamese cuisine, fish sauce can have shellfish and I'm allergic. So weak. 😞
"Rachel Ray is American Jamie oliver" that's a pretty good roast lol
Why is Donald Trump pretty and I am not? But why does he only have a wife but I have TWO HANDSOME GIRLFRIENDS who I show off in my masterpiece YT videos? Do you know the answer, dear po

Why is it so hard for people to say they were inspired by something if they are going to change so much
Why is it so hard for people to understand that there are no rules when it comes to eating what you like? It’s just food. Eat and be happy.
@@jm1178 I agree but if you're making a presentation about a dish then you should be more honest about.
@@tommiddlemist9758 every single named dish made by anyone other than the original inventor is just a representation. Even native people making a native dish are still making they or their family representation. It should be obvious to everyone that it’s just a representation. Literally nobody began watching fat-faced Rachel Ray make a Korean national dish and expected it to be anywhere near the original. Why be so critical of people cooking food? It’s just food bro, get over yourself.
@@jm1178 people do believe people like her 🙄 so get over yourself you're not as smart as you think & I wasn't trying to super critical I made a off hand remark. Did you know some people really love their national foods? And it's apart of their culture I've hear some people care about culture but let me guess you think they are stupid and should just "get over it bro".
@@jm1178why be so critical over a comment? Its just a comment, get over yourself.
She literally butchered this recipe. Calling it a national dish is a complete insult. She could have just called it “pho inspired noodle soup”, and she could have went on to say how she is taking inspiration from the spices and ingredients from pho.
Also if youre so offended by people being critical of other people’s cooking, why are you on uncle rogers channel? Thats literally what this channel is based around.😂
As a Vietnamese, When she said she "defrosted BEEFSTOCK" my heart stopped a beat. I know people have their tweak and take on their dishes but my ancestors do not allowed an " orange beef stock" pho
vietnamese bro :))
Hay là bà Rachel đó làm phở sốt vang? Phở sốt vang thì nước đục đúng rồi, với xài ít gia vị hơn phở truyền thống nữa. Tui tra google thì bả xài đúng y gia vị cho phở sốt vang luôn, chỉ có cách nấu thì lại giống phở truyền thống, kiểu nửa nạc nửa mỡ :v

Rachel doesn’t even look like she’s sure about this recipe. Like a producer just said do this. Don’t ask.
I always watch the news at 9am and her show comes on afterwards at 10am and it's unbearable. Not only is it boring, she just always looks lost and uninspired throughout the entire process. I know she's got an entire of empire of cook books and kitchen gadgets, but holy shit -- as a completely amateur cook, I can't even watch the disasters that happen on that show every day. And I'm not even being pretentious. I'm sitting here eating leftover White Castle and a cheese tray from a party two days ago.
@@ChrisVuletich I would watch her about a decade ago while I was in college and learning how to cook properly and fend for myself. I haven’t had cable or satellite tv for about 7 years now so I haven’t watched her at all in that time, but it’s like a difference of night and day. I wonder what happened to her…
@@RedWolfRun she did this too long, that make her sloppy and careless. In this vid. She looks lifeless no positive energy at all.
@@Hadihadi-wr8mt yeah, I feel really bad for her. She looks like she’s lost everything that made her love doing this.
Right shes like telling us this is a crap way to do it just so you know but here's how you do it lol
“Even Jesus giving up on this Pho" LOL too funny
Ok
@@jaywarrenrafallo5794 he might have given up on your sense of humor, too
As a Jamaican women who has actually tasted Pho! I completely agree with Uncle Rodger 100%🙌🏾 you cannot cheat recipes that are truly cooked with love. You have a new subscriber!
The fuck does being Jamaican have anything to do with it ?

@@maliqmaliq3393 Oh, why does that remind me so much of Portal 2?
If Uncle Roger was a Masterchef judge, the last thing you want to see is him putting his leg down while tasting your food.
😂
"contestant cooks asian dishes incorrectly"
Uncle Roger: haiyaa, what is this? Are you mocking asian dish?
Oh my god the show would be hilarious though 😂
I think many would love to see a Collaboration between Uncle Roger and Gordon Ramsey. And as an added bonus they spend 10 minutes tearing apart the Jamie Olivers of the cooking world.
If he says "Fuiyoh!" then you know that your dish is good
Tbh every time I see Rachel Ray cook I just think “yup, this is why she makes and sells dog food now”
I will never understand how she got so famous for being like a mediocre home chef
Her show was 30 minute meals. She literally got famous being dedicated to shortcuts and mediocrity.
@@ShayShayChardonnay hahah omg that makes so much sense, I never knew where she came from just kind of always remember seeing her pop up randomly, but that makes so much sense!!! Lol
her dog food gave my dog cancer at 3years old she sucks at that also
@@laurenc4138 She got her start by sleeping her way into a local TV gig on a travel show and then got her own show where she would eat for $40 a day and wouldn't factor in tax or tips most of the time. Sometimes she even converted currency incorrectly. So she was really eating like $60-70 dollars worth of stuff.
@@willowwonderbull7100 oh my god that’s horrendous! I’m so sorry! Tbh that terrifies me, our family dog who was like my heart got cancer last year and sadly passed, and truthfully it made me completely change everything I feed my dogs I adopted from a friend. I make all of their dog food now because I’ve heard way way wayyyy too many horror stories about hugely popular well known dog food brands making pets ill and causing irreparable harm or even k*lling them. It breaks my heart how unregulated that market is because it’s always our best friends that suffer, never the awful companies causing the heartbreak for thousands of families.
As a Vietnamese, I could say Rachel Ray won’t get my seal of approval
"Use MSG like salt and pepper, never killed anyone YET" lmaoo

As a vietnamese, i find this is offensive and disturbing. uncle roger, u are representing Asia. keep doing it man you are great. and im still waiting you to roast Jamie when he make Phở
As a vietnamese, and a chef, I found this comment a complete overreaction.
Making pho correctly is a laborious and time consuming process, if someone wants to deviate from the recipe and create an alternative approximation of the original recipe, let them. It's just food. There are a whole bunch of guides readily available on this very platform detailing the original process, so not as if this video will bastardize the dish for someone who really wants to try it in its original form. Even between Northern and Southern version of the dish, there are huge variations.
These videos are meant as light hearted comedy, not food snobbery.

"disturbing" "offensive" lol XD bro chill
My family didn't escape from Vietnam on shitty boats in the middle of the night to see Pho getting messed up like this.
Nice joke? Not sure if its a joke=))
*Me, who is still living in Vietnam*:
"THE HELL IS THIS SHIT? I'm glad I don't live in the same space with her."
As a vietnamese, I feel u =)))))))))))
This proper made me lol
Hol up-
My mom isn’t Vietnamese, we’re actually arab, but my mom tried to make Pho one time, and the broth was very cloudy, you don’t realize how much she cried bro, and when she made it again a few days later, and it worked.. she literally jumped around the entire house in joy, never seen her happy in this marriage with my dad bro.💀😺
The biggest issue for meis that she clearly knows the correct way of doing things, because she makes references to the correct way through every step. She’s choosing to not do it correctly. If you “cheat” through every step of a recipe, it’s not the same dish
I'm convinced these "cooking" shows are simply trying to destroy other culture's dishes to make them more "American". It only takes a generation or two of only watching someone like Rachel Ray to think this is how all food is made. It's a form of control and a way to change history.
Exactly, she needs to just say she made soup. This is nowhere near pho
@@Nic-lk9ib she cold also call it "a'la pho" or "inspired by pho" and noone would be mad... :D
@@capt_smsUncle Roger would be still 😂
Rachel Ray sounds TIRED these days. Like 0.75X speed tired
I once asked a Vietnamese friend for their Pho recipe. They said, "First you want to boil an ox tail for at least 24 hours as a base for your stock." and I said, "I'll just go to a restaurant, I'm far too lazy to spend more than a day making dinner." :D
But now we can also use instant pot for only 2 hours to get Pho base soup. Trust me, even restaurant wouldn't spend 24 hours to cook ox tail. They used dry base soup instead.
There’s a lot of instant pot recipes for pho which are actually pretty good. Takes 2-3 hours
I feel bad for your kids in the future… imagine their 1 day thanksgiving dinner 🤮
@@wolfetteplays8894 My kids enjoy Thanksgiving just fine. Though I normally do a ham as none of us really like turkey. I also do a few appetizers and everyone else brings the sides.
@@wolfetteplays8894 You can easily make a full Thanksgiving dinner in one day, not counting the turkey marination the night before. I did it this past thanksgiving with my family and everyone liked it
For those of you who say that Pho varies from region to region - This is true, but I can guarantee you won't find any Vietnamese putting GARLIC, BAY LEAF in Pho. For the spice, the cardamom we use is black cardamom, along with CINAMON (missing from the video), clove, star anise and sometimes dried orange peel. The noodle in the video isn't wrong, but it's not what we have in Vietnam, which is more similar to Ho Fun like a flat rice noodle, not round which would be Bún instead. The one in the video is more popular in the US with the Vietnamese diaspora there. This is something I think Uncle Roger got wrong as well. We also NEVER put herbs straight into Pho but have them on the side so people could pick out the ones they like. The quality of Pho is often judged by the clarity of the broth, a clear broth shows that the bones were cleansed properly and the spices were not burnt. The secret to making a good traditional Pho (Northern style) is to use Sá Sùng - a type of sea worm which would flavour the broth with umami, a natural MSG if you will, but they are expensive and hard to find to sometimes people just add MSG instead.
Well... She put cinnamon in the video, is not missing.... But is the Pho is worse than my grandpa diaper
I was confused about her not using flat rice noodles as well because here in Melbourne Australia, all the Vietnamese restaurants use it for Pho. Also, the easy way to make Pho at home would be to buy these Pho "teabags", they look like giant teabags to make Pho soup.
as a Vietnamese and a phở lover, this is true
@@ChaosPod And Campbells actually make Pho stock now. You can buy it straight off the shelf. I was skeptical, but it’s actually pretty darn good.
Garlic is viable
I'm really tired of celebrities going on tv and making our whole culture the "wrong is the new right" movement
As a pure Vietnamese living in singapore, I can't believe how americans messed up a very simple dish like pho. I might not say it as that simple but try to look up for the right ingredients and recipe before cooking. There's only two type of pho, one is beef and the other one is chicken. @chewiverseu I agree with you that you can't just put sea food in our traditional pho.
unfortunately, most americans tend to think like Racheal when she said " you can use what ever you want". Merika tends to take already estavlished concepts and ideas and fuck them into oblivion... then they tell everyone else that thats how it was supposed to go....
She is known for messing up anything she can. Google the phrase "Abuelas react to rachel ray pozole." Like I'm white AF, and even I cringed at her posole, it was that far off base.
@@googleedood9721 as a Vietnamese that live in Viet Nam this pain me. Cause Pho is such a common food for us, so cheap and so simple to do if you don't need it to be restaurant quality. In the hard point of pho is that it need to be boiled (not the right word but i forgot the correct one) over night and you have to stay up to take up the bubble thingy.
Uncle Roger was correct, if you can’t find the ingredients then go support your local Vietnamese restaurant!
Yea, sadly most American's will do what they want even when they know it isn't how the dish is supposed to be made; and a large portion of muricans are lazy cookers, so they want the least amount of work with the same results they got at the restaurant they tried.....it's just sad really.
As an authentic Hanoian, I found it completely horrifying when she said we could use sea food for the broth. Now I'm imagining my mom chasing me around the house with a broom stick on her hand, throwing curse words at me and looking like she is about to open the gates to hell herself if I dare put sea food into our family's Pho recipe. LMAO
bro! same as me (i also a hanoian)
Gud comment,fuiyoh
actually in pho bo they use sa sung (Peanut worm) or dried squid to make sweet taste however anything but these two is not ok
like you make phở gà and put shrimp in
As a Saigonese, i think hanoi pho taste is not as good as the one we make in Sai Gon
I honestly love the outtakes where he critiques his character's thought process. It's pretty cool to see the creative process for anything in action.
«…and Rachel Ray is american for Jamie Oliveoil» Dead!!!🤣🤣🤣
Most people don't know this, but the only way you can truly judge how good Pho is, is by the broth. The broth is everything. Everything else that goes in is just a bonus. If the broth is bogus.. dont bother. Nothing else you put in it will save it.
True, I can withstand most mediocre Pho as long as the broth is good. The only deal breaker would be under-cooked tendon.
I've had one good bowl of pho from a hole in the wall in SoCal. It's so true about the broth, it's truly the star of the dish. If it wasn't so expensive (ish) and time consuming, I'd make a few gallons of broth and just live on that for a week.
My local Vietnamese places can't make pho to save their life....one of them makes a broth that tastes literally like dish water.
Side note: I could really go for a banh mi right now, I love those so much.
@@Idividezero Definitely recommend an instant pot for time saving. Pho broth is done in around 2 hours and tastes just as good. It makes the lid smell like Pho though.
exactly
You can put rachel's broth into the trash, that might save it
I grew up in South Louisiana.
Huge Vietnamese population down there because it's a lot like Vietnam with the climate and seafood industries like shrimping.
