Legit Vietnamese Pho At Home

Homemade pho is not some coveted secret. You can make your pho taste just as good if not better than your favorite restaurant by using a little technique. The result being a rich yet clean tasting fragrant broth with lots of fatty and chewy textures. It's everything you want in a bowl of soup.

Hi Joshua, I am 100% Vietnamese. I was born and raised in Vietnam. My Vietnamese team and I run a Vietnamese restaurant in NYC. Pho is very popular in my restaurant. I have been travelling across Vietnam and tried different kinds of Pho in different regions. Chefs use different techniques to bring out their best Pho recipe. You are great. You can’t please everyone. You don’t have to be Asian or Vietnamese to learn how to make Pho. We can always keep learning and trying new methods of cooking. You don’t have to stick to traditional ways as long as the flavors are there... Please don’t allow racist people let you down! Keep learning and pushing things forward.

“Pretty good for a white boi” 😂 you did a really good job sir. Just a few side notes, based on the way my mom makes Pho. 1. We would let the raw bones first sit in the water, with salt, for around an hour or longer, I don’t remember exactly. You do this to dilute the bloody stuff from the bones, so when you cook them the broth will be clearer. 2. We don’t put the fish sauce directly while cooking because it’ll make a broth sour. We put it afterward right before serving, or in a separate pot like you did at the end ☺️ Mom, are you proud of me? 😂

[@dagoat2307]

From the pho that I've tried, I'd never guess sugar. Do you add some? None? What type? In which part of the process?

[@uknowho711129]

@@charliebrownatemybro If you can find rock sugar at an Asian grocery store, that would be the best choice. This sugar has a light sweetness that tastes natural.

It tasted better than what we get at our fave pho spot.

As someone whose most complicated dish has been baked potatoes and I only made that 3 days ago - I'm 23 years old btw - this is faaaaarr beyond my grasp, not just in terms of confidence in the kitchen, but rather just general kitchen equipment. Idk what "broil" means, but I know my oven has that setting. Idk what chuck vs flank steaks are. Idk where to get Thai chilis from if it's not at Walmart. I don't have like 80% of the ingredients you mention and neither do I want to spend that much money while I'm jobless to try to make one very specific dish. I greatly appreciate the fact that you've taken time to upload what you believe to be an incredible recipe - which I also believe it to be - but I'm simply too inexperienced in the kitchen to handle myself and those ingredients as adequately as yourself. For now, I'll stick to my premade bone broth from Walmart and ultimately switch to someone else's video that appears to be more beginner-friendly, but I do hope to one day come back to this video and be able to replicate what you've instructed, maybe one day when I've got both the equipment and the confidence to do so.

[@mattn6685]

I'm Vietnamese and have been making pho, watched my mother and a plethora of cooks making pho all my life. I've never seen a pho broth so dark. There's no need to sear or roast any meat before cooking. Only the onions and ginger should be roasted to "sweeten," or reduce the sharpness, of their flavors. Also, thick beef marrow bones need 8-10 hours of slow simmering to extract all that beefy flavors and unctuous mouth feel from the gelatin. Pho broth needs to have a light amber color, so that when poured into the bowl the noodles, meats and herbs aren't completely drown in a pool of brackish liquid. Remember, we eat with our eyes first. Also, never cook the noodles before hand and place it into the bowl at room temp, it'll lower the temp of the broth too quickly. Just soak the dried noodles in cold or warm water for 30-60 minutes to rehydrate them, then blanche in boiling water for 30 seconds just before serving. That way, the whole bowl of pho will still be piping hot when it's brought to the table. Lastly, never ever put whole pieces of lime or lemons into the broth! The oils in the rinds will leach into the broth and give it that very unpleasant, bitter taste. You don't want a bitter tasting broth after all that work.

Watching this video I was like ooooooohhh, ahhhhhhh, let me try this. Headed down to the grocery store, bought some beer, then went to the local Pho restaurant next door and bought a bowl of Pho. The end.

“ I hate bean sprouts”. Every Asian just have a stroke Thx for the like

[@saysoun752]

I hate bean sprouts and I'm Asian. I also don't use star anise in my pho as I don't like the smell or taste of it. Other than that, this is pretty close to how I make mine. I don't season it as much as I'll let those eating it season it themselves as I like mine on the saltier side. I also have hot oil pepper and Sriracha, pronounced with an "L" not an "R" like all Asians I know do, including myself, that I add to the pho and that's it.

[@Jeff-hc1dq]

I lived in nam for most of my life and I hated bean sprouts lol

[@huylynguyenlam3639]

I hate bean sprout in pho and i’m from the north of vietnam

[@sammanthat]

@Jimmy Spendix There are such things as soy bean sprouts, but usually the commercial/Asian grocery story bean sprouts are green mung bean sprouts.

[@saysoun752]

@Jimmy Spendix No, as I love soy beans. Bean sprouts have a weird, unappetizing taste that lingers and that's why I don't like them. They also smell bad to me. I've eaten them before, just to be nice, if someone makes it for me, like in Vietnamese pancakes. When someone doesn't know I hate it, they tend to make it with it and I literally force myself it eat it. If it's for pho or something where I can add it myself, I don't touch it. Vietnamese pancakes & pho are the only two things I know that uses it as my mom doesn't cook with it too often as she knows I won't eat it. There's other dishes but it's usually added to the meal, which I don't.

Tried it today and everyone enjoyed it a lot. Thank you for your content Joshua!

[@lingdynasty4606]

Looks delicious. Can't wait to try this. Thank you for sharing

[@dotsucks]

Pretty noice! One thing if anyone comes across this comment: if you plan to eat this broth across a few days, I'd recommend saving the fish sauce for the end / per portion of pho you're cooking for. This mostly because including the fish sauce in the original broth results in a much more sour flavor coming in the following days, so keeping the fish sauce for only the portion of pho you're eating with will save the broth for later days.

[@ja52ng74]

1. I wouldn't put the lime wedges/cheeks in the soup, I'd put it on the side so you're not having to fish it out of the bowl in order to squeeze the juice. I'm pretty sure the only people that put lime wedges in the soup are wanky cookbook photographers who think it looks aesthetic. 2. Oxtail bones are great for the broth and you can eat the meat off of them. 3. If you're making it ahead and putting in the fridge to cool, make sure you skim off the remaining fat when you're ready to eat it if you're watching your health. 4. Some other optional beef toppings you could add include beef balls, tendon and tripe. Otherwise, pretty gud pho, mate.

[@Bosscarnage4]

I've actually got a pot going that has ox tail in it, so we'll see if your right. (I don't doubt you tho)

[@Rosalaide]

Tripe is so good! I definitely agree with you :)

[@SomeRandomGuy789]

ja52ng74 - James Putting the limes in the soup is just personal preference.

[@mekahughes2276]

Dude! I did it. For home cooked, it was not bad! It doesn't compare to my favorite restaurants but with the cost of take out/delivery, I am more than satisfied. Added bonus, i have more than enough broth to make it a few more times. THANK YOU 😊

Anyone else quarantined and craving pho?! The only reason I clicked on this video was because of the title and then noticed the channel name. At the beginning he said exactly what I was thinking! 🤣😂 So of course I had to keep watching. The technique is awesome. I’ve made pho before 3 or 4 times and it is pretty labor intensive. But he made it look so easy! I think I’m in love! 😍 (Yes with the pho) lol

As a cook and a Viet, your recipe is legit and your technique is spot on.

Is it accurate?

[@khoio2534]

kinda, in Vietnam they used different seasonings for pho and try not to use fish sauce because of the fish smell, but it's still good with the fish smell tho

[@damianinh986]

Actually they eat pho with fish sauce, but dont use it when cook pho. Remember this tip, when you boil the broth has fish sauce in a long time, they will have some sourness when chill down.

I love pho because you get to see some excellent French techniques used on ingenious combinations of Vietnamese ingredients, all with a final Vietnamese twist 👌 best soup ever, thank you Vietnam

[@raymondtien9857]

When you scoop out the oil/fat from the top of the broth while simmering, keep it in a side bowl. When its time to serve, put a half-a-spoonful to a spoonful on top. Its the intense concentration of the beefy flavor added back in, and its super tasty.

[@DucLe-uq4ee]

Tip: roast/char all the spices you'll be using and cook the bones for longer. It'll make a world of a difference. I find that 8-12 hours is fantastic.

[@majestic6303]

8-12 hours simmering will cause me to pay high gas bill

[@badman_t]

i can only agree with you. i am hungarian, but in love with pho for years now. i made it many times, but i just tried to cook the bones for 12 hours for the first time and the result was amazingly flavorful broth. i only left the veggies in it for 4-5 hours of the cooking process. also, don't worry about the gas/light bills since you really want to cook it on the lowest possible heat on your stove.

[@cinemaocd1752]

I've made pho before but this recipe works the best I've tried. I even have a whole ass pho cookbook and I like this better. I made this when I cleaned out my freezer to defrost it. I didn't have the needed time so I did all the prep by Josh's method and cooked the broth in a pressure cooker for 90 minutes. It was so silky and it gelled up beautiful. Also the tip of crisping up the meat from broth cook is genius. I made amazing tacos with this later in the week from my extra meat.

[@anhkhoatang]

I'm a picky eater and Viet chef and I gotta say your recipe is legit man. A minor thing is to put the spices in an hour before you serve so it smells better (the spices contribute to less of the flavor and more of the smell so if you leave it for hours, you would lose some of that smell). And btw, not many people remember to roast the bones prior so cheers to you!

[@Herbmione]
