Description

Pho soup is a Vietnamese dish that has gained popularity all over the world. It's a hearty soup that is perfect for cold weather, and it's also a great way to use up leftover meat and vegetables. The most important part of pho soup is the broth, which is made by simmering beef bones and spices for hours. The result is a rich, flavorful broth that is the perfect base for the soup.

Prep Time

10 minutes

Cook Time

6 hours

Ingredient

  • 5 pounds beef bones
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 3-inch piece of ginger, sliced
  • 6 whole star anise
  • 3 cinnamon sticks
  • 10 cloves
  • 1 tablespoon coriander seeds
  • 1 tablespoon fennel seeds
  • 2 tablespoons salt
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce

Equipment

  • Stockpot
  • Cheesecloth
  • Strainer

Method

1. Preheat your oven to 450°F. 2. Place the beef bones on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 30 minutes, or until browned. 3. In a large stockpot, add the roasted bones, chopped onion, sliced ginger, star anise, cinnamon sticks, cloves, coriander seeds, and fennel seeds. 4. Fill the pot with enough water to cover the bones (about 4-5 quarts). 5. Bring the pot to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for at least 6 hours. 6. After 6 hours, remove the bones and strain the broth through a cheesecloth or fine-mesh strainer. 7. Add salt, sugar, and fish sauce to taste.
