About Vietnamese pho

Pho is a traditional Vietnamese soup that combines a fragrant, savory broth with rice noodles, protein, and fresh herbs. Originating in Vietnam, this beloved dish is a staple of its cuisine, often enjoyed for breakfast or as a hearty meal. The broth is typically simmered with beef or chicken bones, infused with spices like star anise, cinnamon, and cloves, creating its signature aromatic flavor. Toppings may include thinly sliced beef, chicken, tofu, bean sprouts, basil, lime, and chili peppers. Pho is a nutritious meal, offering a balance of carbohydrates, proteins, and vitamins. Its broth is hydrating and rich in minerals, while fresh herbs and lime contribute antioxidants and vitamin C. Opting for lean meat or tofu can keep the dish light. However, sodium levels in restaurant-prepared versions may be high, so controlling portions and adding less sauce can make it even healthier.
