VOV.VN - Prestigious new outlet CNN of the United States recently listed Vietnamese Beef Pho among the top 20 best soups in the world.
The website quotes "The Pho Cookbook” by author Andrea Nguyen which states that Pho is among the country’s most recognised culinary exports, despite the soup being a relatively new food. According to the website, while today's pho restaurants typically serve a wide range of flavours, beef is widely considered as the original. “By 1930, the soup was served with slices of raw beef cooked gently in the broth. Today, beef pho remains the most beloved version in Vietnam, with options that include the original raw beef, a mix of raw and cooked beef, brisket and tendon”, says CNN.
