8/27/2023 0 Comments Lam bun cha ha noi![]() ![]() ![]() Enjoying a bowl of beef or chicken noodle soup in the morning is something that many people enjoy, especially when the weather in Hanoi turns cold. For that reason, many gourmets often come to the pho restaurant from 9 am onwards, because from this point, the broth of the pho becomes really rich. Pho broth has the aroma and sweetness of beef bones. Pho Hanoi is more special than pho in other places because of its large, white noodles. You can easily enjoy a bowl of pho at fancy restaurants or simply stop at a small streetside shop. This is one of the most familiar and popular dishes in the whole country. Thank you so very much or sharing your recipes! I’m actually making your Ga Kho tonight and bought all the ingredients to make your Ca Ri Ga after.The first character mentioned in this list is Hanoi noodle soup. My nephew, who is only 4, ate 3 bowls!! I love the flavor of the marinade. Which brings me to your Bun Thit Nuong recipe! Simply amazing!!! My mom, who NEVER likes or compliments anyone’s food, was quite surprised and impressed! She ate her entire bowl! This was the first time I’ve ever cooked her a Vietnamese dish. ![]() The dinners I looked forward to was the rare occasion we got to have Big Macs (because they were on special for $0.99!) Lol! But fast forward to my adult life with my own children, I’m trying to cook dishes for them that I was so fortunate to grow up with. I grew up with absolutely no appreciation for my mom’s 4-5 course meals which always included a soup and a green vegetable dish. I am also first born generation here and my parents also had a restaurant (ours was in Vietnam). I was intrigued by your bio because we have so many similarities in our life stories. Some recipes for this dish also call for sesame oil, or sesame seeds, but those do not follow Northern or Southern tradition (it’s possibly influenced from the central region). Only Southerners use lemon grass in the marinade. Some differences in the marinade also really affect the flavor of the meat. However you decide to serve yours, you’re in for a treat! Thịt nướng in Huế, the central region, is a whole other beast for a whole otha post. Northerners eat this by building each bite in their personal bowl, which I guess is more in line with my eating philosophy. Đồ chua (pickled carrots and daikon) is added on top of the bowl of meat. The meat is additionally paired with a pork sausage, called cha (the dish is called bun cha instead). The meat is put in a small bowl, swimming in prepared fish sauce. The rice noodles and vegetables each arrive on their own plate. In the North, the presentation is slightly different. I like mine with egg rolls ( chả giò) on top too if you have the time to make em! I also like adding cucumbers, which is a Southern ingredient. The bowl is finally garnished with chopped peanuts and then scallions onions in oil ( mở hành which is tempting to just dump a ton of it on). Why mix it all up when you can make little combos of your own to enjoy the flavors more? I do the same thing with my salads, desserts (chè), or whatever foods that come in layers. It helps to control the amount of sauce per bite, cuz ya know, I’m crazy like that. ![]() I like to keep the dipping sauce separate, so there isn’t a pool of the sauce at the bottom. You usually eat it by mixing everything including the fish sauce. The presentation of bún thịt nướng in the pictorial above follows the Southern Vietnamese style. ![]()
