About Bun bo

Bún bò is a flavorful Vietnamese noodle dish hailing from the central region of Vietnam, particularly popularized in Huế. It consists of tender beef slices or shank, and sometimes pork, served over soft rice vermicelli noodles. The dish is immersed in a rich, aromatic broth made from beef or pork bones, lemongrass, fermented shrimp paste, chili, and other spices. Often garnished with fresh herbs like cilantro and basil, and served with lime or chili to adjust flavor, bún bò is a balanced mix of protein, carbs, and vitamins. The inclusion of fresh vegetables and herbs offers fiber and antioxidants. However, sodium levels may be high due to shrimp paste and seasoning, and fatty cuts of meat could increase calorie content. With its vibrant flavors and nourishing ingredients, bún bò is a hearty yet mindful choice for those embracing Vietnamese cuisine.
