Vietnamese Beef Pho

Until I went to Vietnam I always thought Pho was a little overrated. And when I attended the Red Bridge Cooking School in Hoi Anh, I was also amazed when we barbequed the beef bones, then washed them in water, only to discard that water and start again! I was pretty incredulous that there would be much flavour. ANYHOO...fast forward to me slurping the fresh rice noodles from the bottom of the enormous bowl...and the rest is history.

I'm excited to announce that we are having a second Vietnamese foodie trip in Sep 2024! Tickets are selling fast. If you'd like the opportunity to come on an once-in-a-lifetime foodie trip with a small group of like-minded foodie fanatics - get your tickets now! See for yourself how incredible authentic Vietnamese food is, we'll be visiting the Red Bridge Cooking School and enjoying a hands-on cooking class.

In the meantime, please make this fragrant delicious broth, load it up with all the freshness you can fit into the bowl and tell me how good it is. It really is amazing. I love it.
