[@SweetandMellow999]

This is my 2nd time making it, but for the 2nd time I added fresh green onions, cilantro stems and extra fresh garlic. So good! Thank you my dear!

[@lindan.9322]

Can not wait until you do the spring roll video!! All these years I have bought pre made nem nuong, cannot wait to try your recipe! Thank you soo much for being so precise and your videos are so easy to follow! Thanks for continuing what you do best!!!

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi Linda, It's so much better and healthier to make these sausages at home. The store bought versions use lots of fillers and food coloring. I appreciate your support and kind words!

[@datgal2u]

Yummy! Such a great video on a delicious Vietnamese pork sausage! I love how you show so many different ways of cooking the sausages (baking, grilling, meat balls, etc.). Your sausages and meatballs look so perfect, too. I really enjoy watching your videos because they are always so informative and educational. :) I appreciate all the effort you put into making these quality videos.

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi DG, thank you! I wanted to share some different cooking methods. It's a great summertime grilling dish but I make it a lot during the wintertime using the oven. Thank you for the kind words regarding my videos--I am learning more with each video so I do hope they're getting better. Appreciate your support!

[@ntantran6024]

It looks so easy in the video. Thanks for the easy recipe.

[@RunAwayRice]

You're very welcome! This is a great dish to grill during the summer. Enjoy!

[@austin091184]

Your instructions is very clear...would want to try to make it...Bravo to you...all your Recipes spoken in clear English...👏👍👌

[@RunAwayRice]

Thank you for your nice words. :)

[@thanhvutran5733]

There is a Vietnamese Priest living about 5 minutes away from me. I always invite him to eat whenever I make dishes from your videos. Today I made nem nuong for him, it was sooo good. We had a great delicious dinner today 👍👍🌹🌹❤❤ chi Trang

[@RunAwayRice]

Aw! You are so sweet em Thanh! I am glad you enjoyed the recipe. Thank you for sharing your story. It made my day! 🥰

[@vietlovesdurian]

love your styles as always, thanks for sharing...

[@RunAwayRice]

My pleasure! Thank you for watching and for your encouragement :)

[@dt6653]

I love to eat this food. Thank you for this recipe.

[@phuongngocpham]

Thanks chị Trang! I made these today for a small gathering and they came out great. A few things I would do differently next time are cutting down on the fish sauce (we found the rolls a little too salty for our taste), mixing the meat all at once instead of splitting into two batches (it was still very easy to mix and the meat still well marinated), and using the flat beater for mixing instead of the wire whip (washing the wire whip was a pain). I like your idea of using stand mixer since the texture of the meat was just right and washing was way easier compared to that of a food processor. One funny thing happened when I made it was I forgot to buy/make the toasted rice powder. Since I had some vietnamese shrimp chips on hand, I microwaved them and ground them to a fine powder. Luckily it didnt change the taste at all. Oh and I didnt have the vodka five spice marinade, so I used one tbsp of shao shing wine and 1/2 tsp five spice powder, which is all I happened to have at home. Thanks c again and looking forward to trying many more of your recipes.

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi Phuong, I am glad to hear you enjoyed this recipe and appreciate you sharing your notes and tips. I love your creative idea of using shrimp chips and the substitution for the Vodka 5-spice marinade is perfect. Thanks for trying my recipe and taking the time to share your results! :)

[@xuanchau6147]

Wow ! Love it and looking forward for next week with new recipes sring rolls. Can't wait Thanks in advance ,

[@王愛玲-v7r]

Chị Trang, Thanh you for sharing.. My favorite meal.. Yummy

[@RunAwayRice]

My pleasure! I hope you make some to enjoy :)

[@王愛玲-v7r]

Chị Trang, I made it yesterday. My husband love this recipe 👍

[@3piegirl]

Can you please show us how to make bún riêu ? thanks... love your videos

[@FiveLovesAndTwoFishes]

I'm a new fan and I find Vietnamese food really interesting! Anyway, I have just purchased all the ingredients and will be making this tomorrow. I plan to marinate the meat overnight, although I'm not sure if it'll enhance the flavor much. Still, I reckon no harm doing so. Keep the videos coming!

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi! I am thrilled you're giving this delicious recipe a try. Marinating the meat overnight works. It'll infuse the meat with even more flavor. I'd love to hear your results. Good Luck!

[@FiveLovesAndTwoFishes]

RunAwayRice The sausages and meatballs (I split the meat patty between the two) turned out great! I glazed the sausages with thick maltose/brown sugar water before baking then broiling them because my hubby likes sweeter meat dishes. He gave this recipe a big thumbs up. Thank you for sharing it! Pictures here: www.flickr.com/photos/angelina_creations/sets/72157646032054349/.

[@RunAwayRice]

Dreamstones777 Hi! I am happy to hear you like the recipe. Your sweet glaze sounds yummy and is a great trick to get the meat to brown up nicely at the end. Appreciate the thumbs up from hubby :) Sadly, I wasn't able to see your pic as the link said it was private. Feel free to share your pic on my FB page: facebook.com/therunawayrice I'd love to see it! :)

[@nhatngon]

Just wow!!

[@RunAwayRice]

Thanks! Appreciate you stopping by :)

[@SamanthaDo]

I like your recipe. Very clear and easy to follow. I checked but could not find pho so I just wonder. I like to learn to cook Beef Pho. Thank you.

[@RunAwayRice]

Thanks Samantha. I will add Beef Pho to the list for upcoming videos :)

[@vangthixanhden]

Yes yes!!! cant wait till your next week! Yummm =p~ Thank you!! :)

[@RunAwayRice]

Thanks! It's coming soon.... :)

[@kiamoua3731]

Can I just use 5 spice powder and mix it a bit of vodka?

[@vietlovesdurian]

love is here... thanks for sharing ...

[@RunAwayRice]

vietlovessaurieng a You're welcome. Thanks for stopping by :)

[@khunkhieu271]

Thanks 😊!

[@luckynasourn979]

u r amaze. I did not have the vodka 5 spice marinate, therefore; I did not use it. However the tast came out so good. I like ur video, because i provide an easy way for recepes.

[@RunAwayRice]

+Luckyna Sourn That's awesome! I am glad to hear this recipe turned out well for you. (This is one of my favs!) You should make some Vodka 5-Spice marinade. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJrJoIujq7-FaM0 It's a wonderful ingredient to have in your pantry.

[@myadvantures0426]

What can we substitute the vodka 5 spice with?

[@austin091184]

Hi Trang...if I don't have Vodka...can I substitute it with Rum or Red Wine or Chinese Cooking Wine...Thanks

[@RunAwayRice]

Chinese cooking wine is a good substitute. Enjoy!

[@bngo4]

I can't find the Alsa baking powder. What happens if I use regular baking powder from grocery store that is double acting?

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi, for this recipe double acting powder will work just fine.

[@tryingnothard]

Hi, where can I buy the Vodka 5- Spice Marinade? Can I use 5 spice powder?

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi, the Vodka 5-Spice Marinade is a recipe I shared earlier. Here's the link kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJrJoIujq7-FaM0 You can substitute with 1/2 tsp 5-Spice Powder.

[@amanar2023]

Hi Trang Love the little tricks that you apply in your cooking technique. ( using plastic wrap etc). One question, I notice that you are using the whisk instead of the regular paddle when blending your meat. Is is a better technique or you just happen to have the whisk out and using it? Thanks Amy

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi Amy, I like the meat mixture to be smoother so I use the whisk attachment instead of the paddle. A smoother/well-combined meat mixture is easier to form into skewers too. If you'd like your sausages to have a little more texture and/or just want to make meatballs, the paddle will work just fine. Good Luck!

[@RuaCao]

Hi, i really like nem nuong and yours looks beutifull. Can I replace roast rice powder with something else? (I have roasted cha xiu pork seasoning). Can I replace onion powder with real onion? About the vodka b/c I'm under 21 so can I skip this ingredient? Thank you so much :D

[@RunAwayRice]

Khanh Ly Hi Khanh, the roasted rice powder adds a nice aroma. I can't think of good substitute for it so if you don't have it, skip it. (I think the Char Xiu seasoning would be too strong of a flavor.) Yes, you can use fresh onions instead of onion powder. Just mince it finely. Regarding the Vodka 5-Spice Marinade, the alcohol burns off while cooking but you can substitute with 1/2 tsp 5-spice powder. Good Luck with the recipe and I'd love to hear how it turns out for you. :)

[@RuaCao]

RunAwayRice : It turns out so good

[@RunAwayRice]

Khanh Ly Hi Khanh. I am glad you enjoyed the recipe. Thanks for sharing your results!! :)

[@diannetabor]

This looks really good! Do you think if I roast brown rice and grind it in a coffee grinder would work for the rice powder?

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi Dianne, this will work just fine. Just make sure you grind the rice really fine otherwise it will be gritty. Good Luck!

[@Fabica14]

Could do a sausage/hot dog recipe with seitan, please? Thanks so much.

[@RunAwayRice]

My shortcut version (without the corn husks) sort of looked like hot dogs. It would be very similar. Just roll the seitan into logs and boil. Use any seasoning you like and then pan fry.

[@meekou86]

The vodka 5 spice marinade,, did u make that yourself? Or can I get it from the grocery store?

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi Meekou, I make the Vodka 5- spice marinade but you can find similar marinades in the Asian grocery store. It's very easy to make and is a great flavoring for meats. The link to the video is in the description box. Hope you give it a try!

[@bin07251990]

Chi oi ! Nuoc 5 spice gi do chi cho e mua o dau zay c

[@thomaskn1012]

What is "roasted rice powder" and is it available at most American grocery stores?

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi Thomas, it's raw white rice that is roasted in the oven until it's golden brown and then ground it into a powder. I have not seen this at the American grocery stores just in the Asian grocery stores. Let me know if you need a pic of the packaging.

[@RunAwayRice]

+Tuyet Huynh Yum, I haven't made this in a long time and may have to move this up the list. Thanks for your request :)

[@dramaxsue]

I want to make that tomorrow and i dont have a the vodka 5 spice. does it really make a huge difference?

[@RunAwayRice]

+dramaxsue This missing ingredient makes a difference but wouldn't ruin the dish without it. You can substitute the Vodka 5-spice marinade with 1 tsp of 5-spices powder. Enjoy!

[@dramaxsue]

Thanks!!

[@ThuNguyen-sq2st]

Cô ơi cho cháu hỏi , cháu mua thịt heo xay ở chợ mỹ làm được ko vậy cô.?Cháu cám ơn cô.

[@RunAwayRice]

Yes em, you can buy ground pork at your grocery store for this recipe. Enjoy!

[@amanar2023]

also , how high do you set the temperature when using the indoor grill?

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi Amy, I set to Medium as mine gets pretty hot because it's cast iron.

[@levhnhu]

[@RunAwayRice]

Thank you em!

Dạ xin chào chị, Em không có Brown sugar , em có thể thay thế đường trắng được khong chị? Xin chan thành cám ơn chị nhiều

Hi Kathy, có thể thay thế đường vàng bằng đường trắng được. Chúc em thành công!

[@Rambunctiousravager]

Dạ em cám ơn chị nhiều

[@SamanthaDo]

Do you have pho recipe?

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi Samantha, do you like Pho Ga/Chicken or Pho Bo/Beef? I am planning a video in the fall but would be interested in hearing what you'd like. Thanks!

[@nguyenhoanglananh6186]

món này không có rượu thơm được không chị ^^ vì em làm không kịp và em cũng không kiếm đủ vị chỉ hướng dẫn ^^

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi, nếu không có rượu thơm em dùng 1/2 tsp bột ngũ vị hương ướp vào thịt cũng ngon lắm. Chúc bạn thành công!

[@tranngocmai27]

Hi chị, món này có đông lạnh được ko chị ?

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi Mai, nem nướng ăn không hết, bọc plastic xong gói giấy foil bên ngoài cho kín hơi bỏ đông lạnh được 3 tháng. Lúc nào muốn ăn defrost rồi nướng lại trong lò cho nóng.

[@mishlamb]

This recipe is delicious! I am saving so much money not buying the $5 premade 14 oz packets at the supermarket.

[@RunAwayRice]

Thanks! They are expensive in the stores and homemade is so much healthier!

[@TheStreetperformer]

absolutely crazy but unfortunately i dont eat pork what could i put instead ?

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi, you can use any ground meat of your choice. I've used ground chicken and turkey in the past. It's delish with these meats too. Good Luck!

[@TheStreetperformer]

all right thank you !

[@hagibson8470]

why do we have to use baking power?

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi Ha, it helps to give the sausage a "springy" texture.

[@ggeminii7788]

mine came out weird. It was salty and I didn't like the vodka 5 spice marinade taste.

[@hantrinh8370]

roasted rice powder is it mean Vietnamese thính ?

[@RunAwayRice]

+Han trinh Yes, that's right.

[@galizetteborrero1106]

Can you make this out of chicken?

[@RunAwayRice]

Yes, ground chicken is a good substitute. Enjoy!

[@galizetteborrero1106]

@@RunAwayRice ok great thank you. I'm gonna make this real soon.

[@dmxy416]

What can I use in place of the vodka 5 spice marinade?

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi, you can substitute with 1/2 tsp with 5-spice powder. Good luck!

[@pkhtown]

can we use ground chicken?

[@RunAwayRice]

Ground chicken works really well and is delicious!

[@voxuanhien4992]

I just want to give you a small suggestion, that is we should put more pork fat than that in the recipe, because the Nem nuong looks a bit dry. It would be more yummy in deed :D

[@RunAwayRice]

Hi Xuan, thanks for the suggestion. I didn't specify the fat content in the ground pork and left it to individual preference. I use a lean pork 90/10 to keep it healthy but a fatter combo would definitely make it juicier. Thanks for sharing your suggestion. :)

[@swanngu2839]

So dry !!! Won’t recommend
