Phở, pronounced “fuh,” is Vietnamese beef noodle soup made with clear beef broth and flat rice noodles (báhn phở) served with thin cuts of beef. The beef can be steak, fatty flank, lean flank, or brisket. Tái means Medium Rare Meat. Phở is considered Vietnam’s national dish.

You’ll love the aroma that will fill your kitchen when cooking the broth.
