"Một nắng" mean that they dry the pork directly under the sun for a whole day so that the pork was half-dried for conservation purpose This technique is usually used in seafood and is extremely popular in central of Vietnam (mainly because of the condition there) Hope this can help you in some way ^^

[@danhvo4632]

Just adding some info further from Huan’s share. Dry-ing under the sun is for food Preservation purpose. It’s usually take 4-5 sunny days to make completely dry that can able storing food under normal temperature. “1 nắng” or “2 nắng” are quite different methods since those use to enhance favor of food rather than preservation since later food need to keep in freezer . The idea behind those methods are quick dry-ing the food surface but keep the moist inside. So when cook, the outside crust, smokey and the inside tender and juicy. The pre-cook method help to enhance the texture of food. It’s quite similar to steaks aging ideology.

[@coreyray6723]

I just googled yesterday to see if it was easy to eat keto in Vietnam. I’m really glad you just answered that. 😊

[@damiann4734]

Nice video. Not many people know about the dishes that Vietnamese eat with rice. Vietnamese meals always composed of 3 things, carbohydrates (rice), protein, soup+vegetables and then you may have your pickled veg sides. Atleast I think its typical. It's quite healthy if you watch your rice portion. So the broth/soup category, we have atleast 50-100 different types. And then protein, that's another 50-100. Pickled veg, probably another 50. Its quite complex but foreigners don't cover this because Vietnamese don't usually talk about it. Also you have regional dishes aswell like curry eels, yam soup, pumpkin and prawn soup, la giang (river leaf) soup, ga rut xuong nhoi jambon and many more.

[@frankie391]

5:55 that's literally the dish Christine Ha shown to the judges in Masterchef US S3, unfortunately she didn't finish the rice in time but it's still super delicious and that she won the apron.

[@CurtisPi]

the last meal you ordered a Ba Rọi Một Nắng Muối Sả Ớt dish. "Một Nắng" literally means "one sun", and it refers to a method of drying pork belly for one afternoon in the sun. This process reduces the water content of the meat, which enhances its texture and flavor. it is one of my favorite dishes.

[@le-phuongnguyen6181]

I appreciate how all the toppings you paired with your rice are common and popular items everyone in Vietnam eats !

I can’t believe white rice is demonize as unhealthy in the US. Vietnam eat the most rice per capita and the least obese country.

[@vietduonghoai6634]

[@doodahgurlie]

A lot of Vietnamese have diabetes...at least the ones over in the US, I'm sure the ones in Vietnam as well (maybe they don't get diagnosed like in the US so many slip through the stats). They may look skinny, but it's called skinny-fat. All the carbs and sugar they eat will catch up with them. I've noticed many of the young kids in various videos are extremely overweight there and the grown ups aren't as thin as they used to be...probably the influence of Western and other foreign foods and a sedentary lifestyle.

[@TheRebornofSocialVietSub]

@@doodahgurlie yes. they won't have meat to eat that's why they eat rice for more full :).

[@doodahgurlie]

@@TheRebornofSocialVietSub Which is fine for those whom work hard in the rice fields and labor. But those in the city have more access to food and they choose to eat the unhealthy stuff and not exercise.

[@dungtrannguyen535]

I am from a rural area in the middle of Vietnam but have been living abroad for 7 years and I haven’t had a taste of these dishes for so long. It is such a distinct culture of Vietnam to be able to serve a variety of our cuisine made to serve with rice and I love this part about our tradition and specialty which is so hard to find in NA. Great production, great content. Keep up the good work. Man you really make me miss home!

[@h011yw00d]

I love the braised fish in that dark brown soy sauce dish. Really good. Yeah most kids don't like bitter melon but you grow up getting used to it. Not bad if it's stuffed with pork/wood ear mushroom/glass noodle inside --- it's like you have to eat your veggies to get to the good filling inside. Rice is a core staple in asian food, but I prefer glutinous rice/flour dishes like banh cuon, banh beo and the rare banh nam (I probably could eat all three of these every day) then you have chinese dishes like chow fun and dim sum rice rolls.

Notice an everyday meal in Vietnam specially in the South comes with lots of green and fresh vegetable. Love bitter melon stir fried with egg, bitter melon also has medicinal value for human well being. Can never be too much bitter melon. Have you ever tried trà hủ qua which means bitter melon tea? this video is great. Thanks for bringing Vietnamese everyday non touristic food to the world.

There is a version of Com Neu that they put less rice in the clay pot and cook it until all outside of the rice get crispy , the only way to get it out is to break the clay pot and top with scallion with pork fat, black and white sesame and fish sauce.

[@slow612bro5]

Excellent RICE episode

[@testdasi]

01:52 - bình dân strictly speaking doesn't mean affordable but rather "for the commoners" (bình dân as a noun means commoners). For example, the older generations probably still remember Bình Dân Học Vụ - literally education service for the people, which was a free education programme in 1945 to improve literacy rate. So it would be obvious why rice diners for the commoners would be on the affordable end. Reason I say the above is there's arguably an even more affordable form of rice diners called "Cơm Bao No" - literally "guaranteed-full rice". It's unlimited rice (hence you are guaranteed to be full) and you only pay for the food i.e. đồ ăn.

Thank you, Chad Kubanoff, this is a really great video. Thank you for promoting Vietnamese cuisine. Where you live in the southern part of Vietnam, there is a diverse culinary scene with very affordable prices, which is fantastic. On the contrary, in the northern part, for example, Hanoi, although the culinary scene is diverse, the prices can't be as low. The same amount of food would cost more than 1.5 times as much. Nevertheless, it's worth trying for fun. I say this not to compare prices, but to help everyone be more informed and objective if you remember this video and read this comment. 😄

Great suggestions, definitely going to try! Btw in Asia there’s table rules like you don’t stick the chop sticks vertically into rice. In Western countries there’s rules too, or at least in middle class upwards, and when constantly violating these rules it looks just as rude and repulsive… no matter if someone uses cutlery or replaced the cutlery with chopsticks

I'm Vietnamese, and to be honest, I didn't like the fish sauce and rich flavors of Vietnamese food that much when I was a kid, but it's completely different when I grow up. I can say that Vietnamese food is extremely diverse and has many flavors. Each province has its own special dishes that only that place has. There are dishes you won't like at first, but when you eat them for the second and third time, you'll see what's special about them and find them tastier than ever.
