how to make homemade pho (vegan) | hot for food by Lauren Toyota

if you're feeling chilly warm up with homemade pho! This is one of my fave go-to meals. I could eat pho all day. Sometimes I make it easier by buying a premade broth. This is my approved brand (amzn.to/3qw6oQu). But it's super easy to make your own deeply rich and flavorful vegan pho broth too. Top it with fresh crunchy vegetables, rice noodles, and tofu and voila!

Can we get an in-depth detailed fridge and freezer tour? To get ideas of how you store items and keep them for later use (like freezing vegetables for stock). Would love that!!

[@marystestkitchen]

the first two seconds is me right now 😂

[@hotforfood]

LOL! haha

[@Steps-dw6wu]

Maryyyyyyy!!! You are missed!!! Hope you are doing well and staying safe!! 🙏😃👋 I keep checking your channel just in case I missed an upload! 🤣

You have no idea how I love pho. There are just a couple of places here in Madrid and I always wanted to do it at home!! Thank you, Lauren. You are my sunshineeee my only sunshineeeee...

[@hotforfood]

awwww so glad I could help hehe

[@ClassySassyChic]

Pho is literally my favorite! I’m excited .

[@NatalieWisler]

Pho is such and underrated food! It’s so good 🤩

[@motivatevideo]

I didn't hear about this food before. Is it tasty or what tasty like?

[@NatalieWisler]

@@motivatevideo it is very tasty! It’s like a hot miso soup with noodles kinda!!

[@motivatevideo]

@@NatalieWisler thank you so much. I like to eat, but here don't know how to make it.

[@debcheunggg]

@@motivatevideo its soo much better than miso soup - way more fragrant!

[@NatalieWisler]

I’m going to crave this for weeks now 🤤🤤

[@hotforfood]

It's so good!

[@calidyme69]

Yes, ma'am....been doing it this way for years...I also add in Five Spice Powder and Rock Sugar, as well as VEGAN Mushroom Powder. I throw in tofu....VERY LAST MINUTE, and hella bean sprouts, green onions, and sriracha. WTF? LOVE IT!!!!🌻🌹🤗🌻🌹🌹🌻🤗🌹🌹🌻🌹🌻

[@hotforfood]

haha yes!

[@EnlightenedCate]

It looks yummy. We do not have a take out because we live in the Australian outback, so I learn all these yummy recipes so that I can always make them myself., so thank you for sharing.

[@hotforfood]

Hope you enjoy

[@tiffibean13]

OMG I've been dying for pho!!! I love you 😍

[@hotforfood]

[@radhikadhaipule3297]

Made this today. The broth is sensational 😍

[@minhng575]

Just when I thought I couldnt love this channel more 😆 Lauren came thru with PHO recipe! I love seeing Viet food veganized.

[@hotforfood]

Yay! Thank you! APPRECIATE IT

[@Optimist788]

I had all the ingredients to make a double batch of the broth to freeze. Such a satisfying feeling to know that I can have pho anytime I’m in the mood. TFS, stay safe and healthy everyone ❤️

[@janelle.evangelista999]

thx so much for this, I lived in Vietnam for 9 years and I love pho, so glad u made this recipe

[@hotforfood]

Hope you enjoy

[@LindseyObrooke]

I always feel like pho is a super long process. This looks easy peasy and is on My List of things to make!

[@CC-in4xr]

Ok I spit out my water in laughter when Lauren sighed at 2:08 and said it's impossible to find fresh out here...i.e. Los Angeles! I wanted to yelled through my screen and said says someone who moved from Canada. LOL ; ) xoxo

[@0490vanes]

Well.. Time to make a second lunch! haha! This looks amazing!

[@hotforfood]

Hope you enjoy!

[@lorraineinbloom2776]

omg lauren!! i made this last night and it was HEAVENLY :) thank you! also, I found fresh thai basil at mitsuwa market in Santa monica!!

[@hotforfood]

Sounds great! glad you liked it :D

Love you, another great recipe.

[@hotforfood]

Thanks so much

[@IamSarahAnn]

Oooooh, YES LAUREN! Thank you so much for this. I’m trapped in snow-pocalypse right now with over a foot of snow in all directions & I am cravvvving soup. I don’t have shiitakes but I will be making this very soon regardless! 🍲✨

[@mariaskorupa5404]

Yes!!! I'm always so disappointed when I follow a recipe and the broth just falls flat. 🙄 So excited to try your version. I'm yet to try a recipe of yours and be disappointed. 😋

[@hotforfood]

Hope you like it! thank you!!

[@hjsimmer1742]

Yesssssss! My sister and bro-in-law love pho and live in Seattle. They ordered it for us when I last visited and the veggie pho was certainly lacking flavor. I will definitely be sending this video to them.

[@hotforfood]

Love it!!

[@swagger1021]

As someone who is passionate about doing Vietnamese cuisine the authentic way.... You did a really good job!!! The ONLY thing I’d change is switching the agave for Vietnamese rock sugar!

[@hotforfood]

Oh thank you!

[@hotforfood]

Oh thank you!

[@CrissySims]

This looks incredible Lauren!! That stock is legendary😍 queen of the kitchen🙏🏽🎉

[@berriaskmelater8096]

i've been making pizza dough from scratch these past five years and the batch makes three decent sized pizzas. the sauce batch i make is enough for about three batches of pizza so i'll portion off the sauce into a plastic ice cube tray and freeze them. i can see making up this broth and doing the same thing. drop five or so pho cubes into a cup and microwave until hot, add noodle and various other ingredients and Viola; Mug-Oh-Pho* *sucks cooking for one but someone has to do it : / lol

[@hotforfood]

that's brilliant!

[@linzertube]

A big bowl of comfort. Thanks, Lauren! And, thanks for the repeated reminder about the bonus dessert e-book...I finally claimed mine.👏🤩

@@hotforfood aww thanks !!! 🥺 we've been some of the lucky ones to still have power and water so we're v v v grateful (although looks like we might lose water soon). our friends didn't have electricity for three days and were running out of food that didn't need to be cooked to eat, so now we have 4 people, 4 cats, and 1 dog in a 576 sq ft house. it's been A Time but we've been lucky compared to a lot of other austinites

I hate/fear shiitake too because of the smell! But glad you overcame the smell to figure out that it's worthwhile :)

I’m making your ramen recipe this week but I guess I’m going to have to try this soon too!

Have you tried Chau Veggie in Vancouver? Their vegan pho broth is unbeatable, but this looks pretty delicious too

You can find Thai basil at most Persian grocery stores year round. There are a lot of them in LA 😀.

[@hotforfood]

damn I am having a HARD time!

[@JEEROFUKU]

Yummmm😋I wish I have more at home time to cook, which is I love to do. ATB 🙏🏻🍀💚 P.S. Is that abura-age by any chance🤔?

[@KP-ev8by]

I found a thai basil plant a few years ago in the grocery store and I've started so many cuttings off of it. Everyone I know has a Thai basil plant now lol

[@hotforfood]

I too have been trying to grow it but it never really got going :/

[@KP-ev8by]

@@hotforfood if you're starting from cuttings, I've found the best method is using rooting hormone and rooting them in water before planting them in soil.... And i do lots of them cause they don't always thrive. They need good sunlight too, otherwise they get leggy and sad

[@Hanzeeeee]

I'm so bored and uninspired by food right now, but I definitely want to make this soon ! 🤩 Xxx

[@bushnellentertainment5759]

Loli will probably use my vegan chicken powder broth!!!

[@lizaprovenzano7460]

could i use fresh shiitake mushrooms? or does dried really change the flavour? :)

[@hotforfood]

yea dried has a concentrated flavor

[@gabrielleflood8899]

Is there something you'd recommend using instead of shiitake for umami? I've eaten pho made with shiitake broth before and the mushroomy flavour was too pungent for me.

[@hotforfood]

so I've kinda changed how I make this! I do it even faster now. I just throw onion, ginger, garlic and all the spices into the pot with a bit of neutral oil, heat it up and once the spices are toasted and fragrant, I add water with a bit of better than bouillon chicken flavored stock (the vegan friendly one) and then simmer it with a lid on for like 20 mins. Then strain the broth. DONE! I don't even know the amounts I just eye ball it! but you could use this recipe as a guide

I bought it that way

The fact you have to throw away the veggies from the broth really bugs me, but I guess there’s probably no way to make broth without doing that?

Pho is Vietnamese and Ramen is Japanese and they have completely different noodles and flavour profiles

[@graypaint]

Ah! I'd omit the soy sauce. . it masks/overwhelms all the taste of the beautiful broth! 😢

[@hotforfood]

I think a dash is ok - like 1/4 cup for 8 cups of broth like I had. Or just add salt to taste

[@mellowpuff_2732]

well that is a pho inspired dish but not pho

No vegan fish sauce??!?! I don't think soy sauce belongs In Vietnamese cooking

[@hotforfood]

well I am trying to make it easy. Go ahead and add vegan fish sauce if ya like

[@banhit75]

You're right in that it's not used much normally compared to fish sauce, but for those not eating meat (typically Buddhists) it is used a lot as an ingredient, though not straight as a condiment.

[@mausmaus9000]

☹🤪فحص!

[@SDEC-f7b]

The taste of the pho broth comes from the beef bones, how can you call a vegan dish pho?? Boring

go away
