Thank you Marc for your fabulous recipes – I have found both the beef and chicken vietnamese noodle soup recipes divine. I discovered Pho Bo while I was in Saigon a few years ago and since then I have been hooked and constantly on the look out for the perfect pho… I have since discovered that the best possible pho is the one you can make at home.. a lot of recipes use powdered stock however which is nothing like the real thing.. and your recipes provide the perfect detail for these stocks – thank you again!

I have a question. Is the soup transparent or dark brown? I want to know before I try out your recipe. Nevertheless, looks amazing!

You are my new friend. Reading your blog makes me happy. I struggle to find people that will break down the soup stocks for Asian soups.. Thank you

Thanks, it’s always nice getting some honest feedback. I’m just curious how you’d describe a soup so full of flavor?

[...] Having lived near the Blossom Hill neighborhood of San Jose for over five years, I’ve been lucky to have had some great pho. Unfortunately, since moving to New York, I’ve been disappointed with the MSG laden canned broth that most of the places in Chinatown use. I’ve even resorted to making my own pho at home. [...]

Yes the Pho has been simmering for hours and the house is so fragrant. Heading out to the garden to harvest some Thai Basil. As I live in Nor Cal, I am spoiled with much good Pho available, but this is the first I have ever made at home.

My son’s BD party tonight; we’re serving Banh Mi (which we have made for them many times and they always request) along with the Pho. Possibly the ULTIMATE in soup and a sandwich!

If heaven doesn’t smell like my house right now…. it should!
