Pho's origins are debated, but it likely emerged in the late 19th or early 20th century in northern Vietnam, possibly influenced by French colonialism and the desire for a hearty, affordable meal. Some believe it evolved from a similar dish called 'xao trau' (stir-fried buffalo) or was inspired by the French beef stew, 'pot-au-feu.' The widespread popularity of Pho is tied to the urbanization and industrialization of Vietnam.

Pho is characterized by a delicate balance of savory, sweet, and aromatic flavors. The broth is the heart of the dish, providing a rich, umami base, while the herbs and spices contribute layers of complexity.
The broth is traditionally made by simmering beef bones (or chicken for Pho Ga) for hours, often with charred onions, ginger, star anise, cloves, cinnamon, and coriander seeds. Fish sauce and salt are used for seasoning. The broth should be clear and fragrant. Rice noodles, known as bánh phở, are added, along with thinly sliced meat (beef, chicken, or sometimes tofu). Fresh herbs like cilantro, Thai basil, mint, and bean sprouts are served on the side, allowing diners to customize their bowl. Common condiments include lime wedges, chili sauce (Sriracha), hoisin sauce, and chili oil.

Broth First
Before adding anything, taste the broth to appreciate its complexity and adjust the flavors with condiments as needed.
Herb Customization
Experiment with different combinations of herbs to find your preferred flavor profile. Thai basil adds a licorice-like note, while mint offers a refreshing coolness.
Lime Squeeze
A squeeze of lime brightens the flavors and adds a touch of acidity to balance the richness of the broth.
Noodle Slurping
Don't be afraid to slurp the noodles! It's a perfectly acceptable and even encouraged way to enjoy Pho.
Hoisin and Sriracha
Use Hoisin sauce for a touch of sweetness and Sriracha for heat. Mix them in a small dish to create a dipping sauce for the meat.
