About Pho broth

Pho broth is a flavorful, aromatic base often used in traditional Vietnamese cuisine, especially in the iconic Pho noodle soup. Made by simmering beef or chicken bones with fragrant spices like star anise, cinnamon, cloves, and ginger, it develops a rich, savory profile. Vegetables such as onions and garlic enhance both the flavor and nutrient content. Known for being light yet deeply nourishing, Pho broth is typically low in calories and fat, making it a heart-healthy choice when consumed without excessive salt. It's also rich in collagen, minerals, and amino acids, which support joint, skin, and gut health. However, commercially prepared versions may contain added sodium or preservatives, so it’s best to check labels or opt for homemade versions. Balanced and warming, Pho broth is a staple of Vietnamese comfort food, celebrated for its healthful qualities and cultural significance.
