Time 2h

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 16

10 quarts water
3 pounds chicken bones
1 whole chicken
1 medium onion
1 (1 inch) piece ginger
1 (32 fluid ounce) container chicken broth
¼ cup rock sugar
3 teaspoons fish sauce
2 cubes pho ga soup seasoning
1 ½ teaspoons salt
2 (16 ounce) packages rice stick noodles (banh pho)
½ pound bean sprouts
1 bunch green onion, chopped
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
6 sprigs Thai basil, or as needed
1 lime, cut in wedges

Steps:

  • Bring water to a boil in a stockpot. Meanwhile, rinse chicken bones under hot water to get rid of impurities.
  • Place bones in the pot of boiling water. Reduce heat and simmer until starting to soften, skimming any fat off the surface of the broth, about 60 minutes. Discard parboiled bones.
  • Place whole chicken into the pot and simmer until no longer pink in the center, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove chicken from broth and set aside to cool. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Combine onion and ginger in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir until nicely browned and fragrant, about 7 minutes. Smash ginger with the backside of a knife onto a cutting board. Place onion and ginger into the broth. Add chicken broth, rock sugar, fish sauce, pho ga seasoning, and salt.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add rice noodles and boil until tender yet firm to the bite, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain.
  • Peel skin off of the cooled chicken; discard skin and bones, reserving the meat.
  • Serve noodles in bowls topped with chicken meat and broth. Garnish with bean sprouts, green onion, cilantro, and Thai basil. Squeeze a wedge of lime into each bowl.

Tips:

  • Use the best chicken. For the best flavor, use a whole chicken, cut into pieces. You can also use chicken thighs or breasts, but the soup won't be as flavorful.
  • Don't skip the aromatics. The aromatics in this recipe (ginger, garlic, and onion) are essential for building flavor. Don't skip them!
  • Simmer the soup for at least 2 hours. The longer you simmer the soup, the more flavorful it will be. If you're short on time, you can simmer it for as little as 1 hour, but it won't be as good.
  • Use a variety of toppings. The traditional toppings for pho are bean sprouts, basil, cilantro, and lime wedges. You can also add other toppings, such as thinly sliced beef, chicken, or tofu.
  • Serve the soup hot. Pho is best served hot, so make sure to reheat it before serving.

Conclusion:

Pho is a delicious and flavorful Vietnamese soup that is perfect for a cold day. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious and authentic bowl of pho at home.
