Pho is vietnamese best gift to this world. It is such a warming meal! It has been the Asian version of "chicken noodle soup", which I never understood because Pho has always been in my life playing that role! I will make my own noodle soup from home made chicken stock, and I think the key to why pho evokes such a warming feeling is the use of the spice star anise which gives pho soup a distinct flavor. Oh mannnnnnn looks like I'm going to get a bowl today!
It truly is a gift to the world! Well said <3
