You did an amazing job on your first try at making pho! I’m Vietnamese & Chinese, this is pretty much how I make it. Thai basil is used as a topping for pho, so you did good picking it up. It’s a must for me personally lol. Yes, normally you’d want to rinse the bones, but skimming it well is just as good. Like you said, more flavor for the broth. The idea is you want a clean broth. The bouillon isn’t cheating, just more flavor. It looks so delicious!! Thank you for such great content!

I’m Vietnamese, and this was an excellent first-time attempt at beef pho! It was great watching the process. Just a few notes and suggestions: - Removing the initial water when boiling the beef bones helps remove impurities and unnecessary components. - I recommend cooking the beef bones for 6-8 hours, preferably 8 hours to attain the natural sweetness within the broth. Additionally, you will achieve the nutrients and vitamins you were worried about removing if you were to throw out the initial water because the 8-hour boiling period will extract these fundamental minerals. - You mentioned that it was lacking flavor, hence the bouillon addition, but if you cook the broth for 8 hours, you will achieve that flavor and the bouillon will not be necessary at all. Also, this can eliminate the salt and MSG because adding those in MAY alter the naturally sweet and core flavors, especially since the fish sauce was added (I was happy to see this added and the amount was perfect lol we use the exact same brand). - If you want, try using round-eye steak for the thinly sliced meat, but I’m sure your choice was delicious, too. - You can purchase beef meatballs meant to be used in beef pho if you want additional meat - it’s usually added in “pho dac biet” - special pho noodle soup. - You can purchase the pho noodles with the package label as “banh pho tuoi” which is fresh and great for pho noodle soups - the only thing is, they cook extremely fast. You just dump it in boiling water, stir for 10 seconds max, and remove it from the water. - Lastly, when making your bowl and right before eating, you can choose to add in a bit of sriracha and hoisin sauce for additional flavors AFTER cooking - this goes well if you do not add salt or MSG while cooking. - Side Note: you can also take a separate small bowl, like a dipping sauce bowl, and mix sriracha and hoisin sauce to dip your meats in while eating our beef noodle soup. Overall, I appreciate the passion and delicious meals in all your cooking videos - the livestreams with all the family members are my favorite.

Thai basil is correct! They have fresh pho noodles if you can find them in the fridge isle. The first blanch of the bones is to remove the impurities which in the end makes a cleaner, more clear broth. Great job! Can’t wait to see you perfect your recipe!!

Benji, this looks incredible for your first try! I’m Hmong, and we definitely have similar methods. Par boiling and rinsing the meat gives it a more clear broth in the end result, however skimming works just as well. You can also find the spices (cinnamon sticks, coriander seeds, cloves etc) comes all in a pack you can find at your local Asian store. We use the old man que brand. We also add fish sauce, sugar, and beef pho soup base for more flavor too 😊 Thai basil is used for the toppings, but you can incorporate it in so many others dishes- I like to use it in spring rolls and pad kra pao (pork and Thai basil stir fry). Nonetheless, great job! I’ve been watching you guys since before JB was born and I’m excited to see other Asian cuisine recipes on your channel!

Hey Benji. First of all, thank you for making a Vietnamese dish. It makes me so happy. The way we do it in Vietnam is we “blanch” the meat, meaning we put the meat into the boiling water for about 10 minutes to remove all the blood and gunks and we dump out all of the water, wash the meat/bones very well and then start cooking the broth with that clean meat. This step is very crucial for Vietnamese broth making (any broth) because we are known for super clear but flavorful broth. One more thing for a clear broth is that after you wash all the meat, you don’t want to cook them to the rolling boil, only simmer. Hope this help explaining your questions.

There is a Korean Oxtail Soup as well. What we do is soak the oxtails in cold water for at least 30 minutes before boiling to drain the blood and to clean the meat. Some people boil this and dump it after but others skim like you do - I highly recommend the soaking method before putting the oxtails in the pot at least. The purpose is to have as clear of a broth as possible.

Love this content! Thanks for shouting out Cambodians! You can roast diakon and garlic to add more flavor to your broth. Or add salted radish. The Cambodian katiew is more pork flavored. I use pork bones so it gives off a lot of gunk but has a richer flavor. So i blanch them first for a cleaner broth. Also, you can use palm sugar for a deeper, richer broth. We all use bullion powder, so dont feel bad for using it! Everyone has their own way of making it but this is great for making it the first time. If you leave the oxtail bones with the meat in the broth it tenderizes the meat. Last bowl of katiew is the best!

Try it with filet mignon it’s so good or pho restaurants will usually use the ‘eye of round’ cut of beef. I know you mentioned in another video you weren’t sure what meats you were supposed to use, you can use giant beef bones, add a piece of brisket in there until it’s tender and slice it up! I like to use beef ribs as well 🤤 Gotta have the meatballs and you want to amp up the flavor use a pho soup bouillon cube. Also try putting rock sugar (it’s yellow) instead of regular sugar. I would love to see you make siopao next since you love making dough 😊

You did an amazing job Benji for your first time. I own a Vietnamese restaurant, and approve. Some pointers, slice some red or white onion thinly, as a topping, this adds a lot of flavour. Next time you can try to find beef flank to add to your broth, this will add flavour to the depth of your broth, as well you’ll be able to thinly slice the meat as an additional topping, also if you can find cardomon, try adding a few of those to the pot along with your other spices. Note that too much cardomon will make your broth have a “sour” flavour. Also if you choose to use dried Banh pho next time opposed to fresh Banh pho- try soaking your noodles in cold water for 1-2 hours ahead, and than drain out, then recook in boiling hot water for about 45 seconds. This will retain the chewiness of the noodles as well as keep it as fresh as possible if your making multiple servings at different times. Next time you’re in Canada, come visit us for a bowl of pho!

Broth clarity is a key goal in Vietnamese broth. Dumping the water is one thing, but washing the bones of any gunk stuck on it and washing the pot of gunk stuck on the sides helps achieve that clarity!

Hi Benji! This looks so good!! Here are my preferences/tips -dump the water, and boil the meat again to get a super clear broth (but your way is fine too) - season with salt/fish sauce at the very end when your broth is done. -The Thai basil is the correct basil! -You must try adding a brisket or flank into the broth or tendons. -get some good beef bones/ beef neck/ bone marrow for your broth. Oxtail is more on the fatty side which is fine but I feel like it’s not enough beefy flavor for the broth. - bring the broth to a boil and let it simmer!!! Don’t have it at a rolling boil the whole time. Great job for your first time!!

Oh My Gosh Benji, Another recipe for me to try. I learned all my recipes from my mother, She always cooked for a living since she was in Mexico. I always saw my mom soak the meat in cold water for at least 30 minutes when she was going to use beef or pork for stews(Caldo in spanish) She would always add onion, garlic cloves and a couple of bay leaves only to the pork and DEFINITELY clean all the gunk off as it popped up. I learned to cook just by watching her. She wasn't very patient to teach so I watched and paid attention. Now I know how to cook many of her recipes that my other siblings don't know, But I have tweaked alot of them to make them my own. I always get compliments on my cooking, Thank God. Watching your love for cooking has made me cook more for my own family. Thank You for all your videos❤

That pho looks amazing, for a first time I think you did fantastic!! When we have leftover pho broth we use it for our hotpot base, quick and easy dinner. We blanch the bones just to get a clearer broth but removing the impurities seems to do the job too! My mom taught me to add about 2 tablespoons of fish sauce a couple mins before serving, it makes the broth very fragrant! Bouillon is a must when making pho, so its okay you aren't cheating. Also, if you soak your noodles in lukewarm water until they're a bit softer, it cuts down the cooking time. Especially if you gotta make a bunch of bowls at once. Loving the videos, keep up the awesome work!!

- I would definitely recommend par boiling the bones to remove the impurities and to have a cleaner tasting broth. It actually makes a big difference in flavor imo! For more meat flavor I would add in a few pounds of beef bone marrow (they are usually packaged in bags and in the frozen section at asian grocery stores) to the broth as well as beef shank + beef brisket! For the shank and brisket I usually take it out at the 3 hour mark and put it in the fridge until i need to slice. :) - You can also try adding in daikon for an added sweeter tasting broth, but make sure to add it later on in the process or they’ll get too soft! - For the seasoning i like to add it at the beginning (fish sauce, rock sugar, salt) and also towards the end of my cooking process if I need more flavor then i’ll add a little bit extra. I’ve never had to add msg to the broth because it’s already so flavorful! - Rock sugar is also recommended because it has a bolder sweeter taste than regular sugar. - Make sure when you are cooking the broth it doesn’t come to a rolling boil! Keep it on a simmer for 8ish hours and that’ll allow the meat and bones to release more flavor without it breaking. - There are also pre-packaged pho spice packets that come in a bag with the cloth bag as well for about $2 at an asian grocery store. Super convenient! I usually add the spices in towards the end (maybe when i have 2 hours left) and i only leave it in for about 30 minutes. I feel like the longer you leave it in, the more it will cover up the meat flavor. But overall you did a great job and hopefully these tips will help!! - from an orange county native (IYKYK 🤪)

Great job! If you make this again, I suggest adding beef rib bones and/or beef bones w/marrow (you can find at the Asians stores for really cheap.), even short ribs. If you cook longer the broth will develop more flavor. I cook mine for at least 12. Add tendon, tripe (book tripe). Don’t forget some thinly sliced jalapeño and some chili oil. 🍜 I think the next dish you could make is birria tacos, tonkatsu broth for ramen, pad Thai, or popcorn chicken (the ones you get from boba shops)

Growing up watching my dad cook, he never dumps the water. Just cleans out the gunk. I don’t know if it’s a cultural thing, we’re from Guam. Raised in So. Cal, but we always had Chamorro food in our house. I’ve actually never met anyone who dumps the water out.

I love pho. I grew up with it when i lived in Hanoi as a teenager. And many years later went back to visit Vietnam. I got pregnant there, and it was my pregnancy craving!!

I make oxtail soup, I've never dumped out the delicious broth. I've skimmed and at the very end I use a strainer to make sure I get all the scum and have a clear broth. It's too delicious and flavorful throw out! 😊

You did a good job Benji! My family we love pho, we typically add beef balls and tripe as well. But it's your personal choice.

Us Vietnamese dump the gunky water after boiling because you want the broth it be clear as possible. The clearer the broth, the richer the flavor. This is why most pho broths are simmered for so long.
