There was some decent stuff in Seattle. I miss it.

Looks nice, but here's the deal breaker

how spicy is it?

>> No.5005926

>>5005828

Thank you. I was proud of it.

>>5005881
Thanks. It was a pretty big portion indeed. I finished it at like 2330 and hadn't had anything to eat since early that morning. So naturally I ate more like a duck than like a pig.

>>5005886
The portion is indeed huge.

Not very. The red pepper on top was an I-don't-know-what from the generic grocery store. I dumped some morally questionable amount of sriracha in there as I ate. I frankly don't really care for super hot things. A pleasant degree of heat is definitely appreciated. Especially this time of year what with the hot enough to clear your sinuses effect.

a morally questionable amount of sriracha is fine

Pho just isn't right without some heat in my opinion.

Here's the recipe I used in case anyone is interested in trying this on their own

Ingredients:

5 oz dried rice noodles
heaped 1/2 cup bean sprouts
6 scallions slice thin
mint leaves
cilantro, chopped
a couple limes
a chili or two, sliced
about 12 oz beef tenderloin

Broth:
4 cups beef stock
6 cloves
10 whole black peppercorns
1.25 inch piece gingerroot, peeled and sliced
3 cinnamon sticks
3 star anise
6 green cardamom pods
2 tbsp fish sauce plus extra to serve

>The portion is indeed huge

Then why imply that it is tiny by saying is it for ants?

>> No.5005942

Method:

1.Put broth ingredients in large sauce pan and simmer gently over low heat 20-30 minutes.
2. Prepare rice noodles as package instructs.
3. Set out sprouts, cilantro, mint, scallions, chili slices, limes, and fish sauce so you can dress this shit when you're ready to.
4. Slice beef good and thin
5.Bring the broth to boil over high heat. Fill large ladle with beef and dip in boiling water for 5-10 seconds until it is pink. Then pour the ladle contents over your noodles. Then top off with additional broth and garnish accordingly.

It was a rather large bowl

>> No.5005947

Notes on recipe:

Obviously check broth for taste and adjust accordingly. Don't be brazen with the ginger. Too much ginger and the broth will sting.

You should get star anice next time, OP. It'll make your pho sing.

Derp,

I cannot into reading.

Carry on, OP.

Yeah there's no way this would have been as good had I used aniseed instead.

>> No.5005973

That's not pho. That's some shitty imitator some Asian's used to sell to white people that don't know how the hell to say Pho in the first place.
The broth needs to be boiling hot and covering all of the contents of the pho.
The chili looks like it's been re-used in 4 other bowls of pho before yours.
Do you even know how to say pho, OP?

You fucked up so hard, i bet you bought one of those "Pho Bo" packets for 1 dollar and now you think you made actual Pho just like college retards in reddit/ramen think they're making actual ramen with packets of maruchan. The broth is supposed to look clear like in my pic , not like diarrhea. Thank god i'm not an ignorant uneducated uncultured american like you, i bet you also pronounce pho like this fat ass http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1kl5CDTR6w
