Thank you so much. I know these are old videos but I was searching for the recipes that my grandma used to make and this soup was top of my list!! I missed it so much since I also moved away to Europe and there aren't any cheap options for Vietnamese food herem
Mmmm, this soup looks amazing! My hubby and I have been trying to experiment more with different soups and shrimp dishes so this recipe is definitely on the top of my to do list.
I haven't seen winter melon, but we do have Chayote! I'm definitely going to make this. I bought a spiny chayote a little while ago and it wasn't exactly the most exciting vegetable considering the thorns.
I tried this dish out and it tastes amazing. The second time I made this, I substitute the shrimp with pork ribs and I added the fried shallots so good. Thanks for sharing this video.
This is my mom's favorite soup. She makes this very often for my family but she fries garlic instead and she cuts the melon very thin in the stick shape.
Mỗi lần em nấu ăn, em (người ĐN sống ở SG) lại gọi về hỏi má (người ĐN sống ở ĐN) công thức. Được 3 lần thì má em chửi em quá trời. Vũ trụ chắc đã nghe thấy nguyện vọng của em và gửi channel của chị tới~ òaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa love youuuuuuuu~
I received your cookbook today Helen!!! Yayyyyyyyy! I'm so excited. It looks fantastic! Cant wait to leaf through it and retry all your yummmmm Vietnamese recepies 😋 My hubby's gonna eat only Viet meals for a lonnnng time! Haha!
Hi Helen! Thank you so much for this delicious recipe. What is that egg pancake you're eating with the soup? Can you do a video on it? It would be nice to learn more side dishes to eat with the main course.
Great recipe, one of my favorite soups with plain rice and a main meat dish like roasted pork, bbq pork or thit kho. The soup is very refreshing, lite and has a natural sweet taste from either the su su or bi, I use either one or the other bu I don't like mixing them together.
Very interesting! What I've seen here where I live (Thailand) are mostly winter melon soup with dried shrimp OR the whole different menu, the winter melon soup with salted lime (or should I call it pickled lime?), my mom usually cook it (the salted lime version) with chicken meat and a big chunk of winter melon, too bad I don't like winter melon much but the soup is very delicious!
Hi Helen, could you do a video on how to make 'ga rang muoi' I love this dish but don't know how to crisp the batter and how to make it taste salt and peppered. Thank u.
Sure. My family rarely use fresg shrimp to cook in daily soup. We always have dried shrimp for quick preparation. I usually soak dried shrimp in hot water for 10-15 mins before cooking or if I'm in hurry, I just wash and throw them in immediately. Haha. The saltiness of dried shrimp, in my opinion, does not affect much (esspecially when you already soak them in water), so dont worry :>
Helen ơi! chị biết nấu canh khoai ngọt không (hay khoai mỡ)? loại khoai màu tím đó. Rất thích món đó của Má nấu nhưng đi học xa muốn ăn mà không biết nấu. Hy vọng Helen sẽ chia sẻ cho em nha.
actually, the head part give more flavour and sweetness to your soup. i think you can just leave the heads there and cook. if you dont want to eat them, you can get rid of those heads later :) in Vietnam, for those families who dont have much money, they only buy the heads of the shrimps because it's cheaper. p/s: you can also eat the heads, it's okay :)
Hello Helen, vỏ tôm không chứa canxi, mà chủ yếu là chất kittin, caasi (thành phần giống móng tay người hay sừng tê giác ấy). Canxi chủ yếu ở thịt, chân và càng tôm thôi nhé! ^_^
My parents grew this melon and gave one to me to bring back to my apartment (I live alone). Thanks for video, I can make this now!

Hey Helen, I made this today using the white part of watermelon rind and it actually tastes pretty close to canh bi dao. You should give it a try!

I love shrimp, this is a great recipe from Helen's Recipes (Vietnamese Food)
Does it have to be shrimp Helen or u can use ground meat to
Great recipe, one of my favorite soups with plain rice and a main meat dish like roasted pork, bbq pork or thit kho. The soup is very refreshing, lite and has a natural sweet taste from either the su su or bi, I use either one or the other bu I don't like mixing them together.
Very nice Helen, where could I purchase the soup pot that you use?
Thank you 😊 👍👍👍

Mouth watering ........nice !
Hi Helen, could you do a video on how to make 'ga rang muoi' I love this dish but don't know how to crisp the batter and how to make it taste salt and peppered. Thank u.
Aloha Helen.
Winter Melon is so cheap here in Hawai'i, I can buy one huge 5 kilo melon at farmer's market for $3.00. I love it in soup or stir-fry.
it's expensive here where I live! Such a tasy, savory soup. I have it with rice and some side dishes.
Very simple indeed! And tastes just like my boyfriend's Vietnamese mom's
em dùng tôm khô xay nhỏ được không chị
Thank you. I cannot find winter melon in Spain :( But can I use radish instead? I love your channel.
Thank you for the instructions, I'm learning to cook this for myself
that's how i eat my rice too! half with dishes half with the soup. that way i can enjoy the best of both worlds, hehe
Hi Helen are you filming from Germany or Vietnam?
I'm filming in Vietnam.
OMG! Helen you are so amazinggg. thnkkk you
Can you use dried shrimp instead of fresh?? I was wondering cuz I have don't have any fresh.
Sure. But soak dried shrimps in water overnight to soften them. Don't forget they are salty, so adjust the sugar and salt as you taste.
Sure. My family rarely use fresg shrimp to cook in daily soup. We always have dried shrimp for quick preparation. I usually soak dried shrimp in hot water for 10-15 mins before cooking or if I'm in hurry, I just wash and throw them in immediately. Haha.

Hi Helen, I was owondering... if we dont clean peal the shell do we ussually leave the head on?
actually, the head part give more flavour and sweetness to your soup. i think you can just leave the heads there and cook. if you dont want to eat them, you can get rid of those heads later :) in Vietnam, for those families who dont have much money, they only buy the heads of the shrimps because it's cheaper. p/s: you can also eat the heads, it's okay :)
Dylan Nguyen Thanks Dylan, in Greece they leave the heads on too but dont ussually eat the shell. It sounds more delicious with thee head on , hmmmmm!

Spring onion and cilantro should be mandatory, along with some extra ground white/black pepper. That is what i put on top when i eat it.
What does winter melon taste like? It looks like it would taste bland, or slightly sweet. Am I right?
Christina Mancuso yes you are right, it tastes quite bland, but the soup is tasty bcos of the shrimps :)
U live in germany
+Helen's Recipes in Indonesia we eat winter melon with spinach, and the soup look clear , we call it sayur bayam (spinach transparant soup)

Chị Helen ơi! Sao nước dùng của chị màu hơi đỏ đỏ vậy? E làm mà màu trong nhạt thôi không được màu đỏ như của chị ạ:((((

How long does this soup keep? I've never worked with winter melon, so I don't know the texture or how it keeps in liquid.
momijifugimia you should serve it within the day
