  • 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? 😂

    We made Pho last weekend using your process but used green cardamom because its what we had. We added beef tendon in the broth then sliced thin like the meats. The tendon added something to the mouthfeel of the broth. Assembly was noodles, sliced tendon, sliced sukiyaki beef, sliced cooked beef, boiling hot broth, then topped with blanched bean sprouts, cilantro sprigs, thai basil leaf, lime wedges, side of hoisin and sri racha. It tasted better than what we get at our fave pho spot.

      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.

      @saysoun752 4 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      @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.

    I remember my first time trying pho. It was at a little Vietnamese restaurant called Pho Hung in Chinatown in Toronto, Ontario. Best bowl of soup I've had in my life. I dream about it and crave it on a regular basis (as well as the iced coffee there). It's now a must-stop every time I'm in Toronto. I was always intimidated to try to make it at home based on other recipes, but this is probably the most accessible one I've ever seen for it, and has now inspired me to try making my own. Thank you.

    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.
    I doubt that original uploader will ever read this comment, but at least the comment function is serving its purpose as an outlet, a method of me expressing myself.

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.

    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!

    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.

      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)

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

    I had pho the first time in 2022 and it has become my favorite food. Found a small family owned Vietnamese restaurant I go to 1-3 times per week just for pho

      Now you should branch out and try bun bo Hue...pho's spicier cousin. :) Also try other Viet dishes like com tam, bun thit nuong, bo kho (best ones are served with a baguette to dip it in), banh xeo, banh cuon, bo ne, etc. A ton of amazing Viet dishes out there people have yet to try.
