Vietnamese Dishes

Tourists can enjoy Vietnamese food everywhere at deluxe restaurants or even at street cafes. As you travel up or down the country; you will notice sharp differences in both main dishes and snacks eaten by locals. It's one of the joys of traveling in the country; and it’s a good idea to ask your guide to point out interesting things to eat.

PHO

For Vietnamese; Pho is life; love and all things that matter.
In Vietnam; Pho is mostly a restaurant food. Though some people prepare it at home; most prefer going to noisy soup shops. Here are a few tips:
- Pho comes with a variety of toppings including rare beef; well-done beef and slices of brisket; tendon; tripe and even meatballs. If you`re a novice; try pho Tai Chin; which includes the rare and well-done beef combination.
- Sprinkle some black pepper; then add bean sprouts; fresh chiles and a little squeeze of lime to your bowl. Using your fingers; pluck the Asian basil leaves from their sprigs and; if they`re available; shred the saw-leaf herbs and add to the soup. Add little by little; eating as you go. If you put the greens in all at once; the broth will cool too fast and the herbs will overcook and lose their bright flavors. Chile sauce and hoisin sauce are also traditional condiments.


BUN BO HUE (HUE BEEF VERMICELLI)


All over Vietnam, you can find and enjoy beef-vermicelli and its tastes from all parts in the country meet and make up special flavor of Hue vermicelli.

 Hue people enjoy beef-vermicelli in their own way and the food here is a combined art of something fashionable, something very popular. Hue connoisseurs rarely enjoy the food in well-decorated restaurants, and an eating place frequented by tourists is opposite to city post-office on Ly Thuong Kiet Street. Beef-vermicelli is consumed here day and night, the broth-pot is kept boiling but this is not the most visited one because Hue city folks only have beef-vermicelli in the morning and they have their own choice. Fresh vegetables are inseparate and vermicelli seems to have just gone out from producer's, and the flavor of the snack could be found nowhere else.


HU TIU

Hu tiu, the Chinese rice noodle soup, was imported to Saigon and southern Vietnam by Chinese immigrants centuries ago.

Ask for hu tiu at any Chinese restaurant that serves dim sum (breakfast), and you’ll have a hot bowl of white noodles whose flavor will make your mouth water. On top of the noodles are slices of pork, and on top of the slices are lettuce leaves. Chinese cooks often add small cubes of fried fat to make their hu tiu more delicious.




CHA CA LA VONG (LA VONG FISH-PIE) 

The inventor of this fish-pie came from Doan family on Hang Son Street, Hanoi. In 19th century, Hanoi people normally baked pork, but he baked fish-unstinking fish to make fish-pie. Hanoi people then soon got infatuate it and his eating-house turned prosperous. Henceforth, the name of the street was changed into Cha Ca (fish-pie) from its former name Hang Son (Paint Street) due to success of his eatery.

 To Hanoi people, the taste of Cha Ca remains as it was. To have tasty pie, shopkeepers have to select good fish (normally Lang fish) with solid fresh, less bones and good scent. Processed fish is mixed in fish sauce, pepper, galingale, saffron and rice-ferment. Then put on a fire-tongs and grilled right on the eaters' table. Eaters, while eating, have to fan the fire, turn upside down to make both sides baked. Then they put the fish into a bowl of boiling fat and consumed with rice vermicelli, groundnuts, spices, dried rice-cake, sliced onion leaves, some drops of lemon juice and a little coleopteran.

Sometimes, salt water fish can be used instead, but there must be good fish with solid flesh. Processed fish (cut horizontally not vertically) is mixed with fish sauce, ginger and spices, and then put into an earthen pot and cook o small fire until dry. Cooked fish must be solid, not soft and the scent of spices make the food more attractive, even the bones have to be cooked until soft, so eaters feel satisfied when eating.

 

COM (GREEN-RICE) 

In a clear autumn morning, when the Northeast wind lightly blows; green-rice from Vong village (a famous village in Hanoi) travels with young country girls to the corners of the city. Green rice is said to be the quintessence of the earth and sky, the milk of rice paddies in buds. Vong villagers now pick and choose the right kinds of rice to make green-rice. Traditionally, green-rice is an offering indispensable on engagement day of the couple, from the bridegroom’s family to the bride’s family.

What a marvel it's when one stays on a floating boat, by side of smelling hot-pot cooked with fish caught by himself. Fish is caught from rivers or ponds. The fisherman maybe Anh Ba or Anh Nam or so promptly, he drops dead the fish and Ms Ba or Ms Nam or so gets it cleaned and boiled in a pot. Spices are inseperable with the fish. Hot-pot is the flavoured only with certain spices.

VEGETERIAN MEAL (Com Chay)

Vietnamese vegetarian cooking (an chay) has a long history and is an integral part of Vietnamese cuisine. In general, the focus of vegetarian cuisine in Vietnam has been on reproducing traditional dishes prepared with meat, chicken, seafood or egg without including these ingredients.

Vegetarian meals are part of abstinence. Accordingly, the vegetarian regimen can help you have a pure and healthy heart. In addition, it help you to free yourself from the cycle of Karma, a dogma according to which the destiny of a living being is determined by the totality of his past actions and his past lives. In other word, the renunciation of meat help you avoid committing sins related to the killing of living beings".

GRILLED FOOD

Grilled food or grills for short is closely related to the floating life of the cultivators. It might be that the first settlers (in their cultivation process) found good smell and taste in grilled fish, duck, chicken or something else. Nowadays, grilled food is more and more improved; however it remains as it was called.

Apart from originally grilled food: fish, chicken, today people invent more grills: pork (consumed with vermicelli), wild pigs... need more skills. But don't forget that beef is rolled in la lot (kind of spices) to be grilled or cods to be in banana leaf, eels in mulberry leave...

Ways to grill are uncountable, even a chicken can be grilled unplucked (with hair on) and coated with clay. It's not only satisfactory to your taste but to your eyes and noses...

MUSHROOM HOTPOT

At Ashima Mushroom Hotpot restaurant, even the most reluctant diners end the night begging for more. Although Ashima also uses Vietnamese mushrooms, most of the mushrooms are imported and were discovered by Kim Anh and her friends while travelling.

"Some mushrooms need to be cooked long enough to absorb the flavour from the broth, which is a mixture of mushrooms, Chinese herbs, and pork bones that have been cooked for more than 10 hours," Kim Anh said.

When the mushrooms were ready, the waitress poured some soup into a small bowl of seasoning powder and then placed the mushrooms and meat into our bowls.

WEST LAKE SHRIMP IN BATTER

The best time to enjoy shrimp pancake at West Lake is at sunset in summer. The pink shrimp (from the West Lake fresh water) on light brown crackers and the sweet, sour and spicy sauce all remind you of the aroma of the countryside. There at the West Lake, a diner could take each bite of the cake accompanied by a drink of cold beer, and enjoy the nice smell coming from the stove and the cool wind blowing from the lake. Now, you may seek somewhere in your memory the fairy tale about the Golden Buffalo who, on the way to look for his lost mother, created the West Lake.

The shrimp fried pancake of West Lake now still keeps its traditional flavour and taste: hot, cracker cake dipped in skillfully made sauce which is sweet, sour and spicy.

DUC CAKE (BANH DUC)

Duc is a popular kind of steamed savory cake, which originated in northern Vietnam. In Hanoi, banh duc is usually sold at small food stalls and can be eaten throughout the day as a snack.

This cake comes in two varieties, one made from corn flour, the other from rice flour. Other ingredients include water, peanuts and lime juice and the finished cake is soft, smooth and colourless.

As a frugal but nutritious meal, banh duc is often eaten with steamed meat, seasame seeds and salt.




RICE FLOUR STEAMED ROLLS

A breakfast of banh cuon is a favourite of the Vietnamese. It is made of rice flour, from thoroughly selected grains. The rice is soaked overnight, and ten ground with stone mortar.

Food preservatives are added to the flour to make the sheets of rice softer and smoother. A screen of cloth, used to mould the rice sheets, is placed over the opening of a pot of boiling water. Flour is spread on the screen and then covered with a lid. After a few minutes, a bamboo stick is used to strip the thin layer of flour off the screen, and it is rolled up and sprinkled with fried anions.

All of the ingredients are stir-fried, put into a banh cuon, and then rolled up.



ROAST DUCK

is a specialty of Lang Son province, especially roast duck of That Khe. Duck is killed and plucked, then some ingredients of which Mac Mat leaf is special, will be placed inside and the duck will be re-mended.

After that, duck is put into boiling ground-nut oil or fat to be roast until it turn crisp. Roast duck have crisp skin and delicious flavor.




FRIED SWEET CORN (NGO NEP NUONG)

Walk through the streets of Hanoi in the winter and you are sure to pass vendors huddled over small hibbachis, roasting corn-in-the-cob. The sweetest sticky corn comes from the Red River Delta and is roasted in its husk over wood coals. Roasted corn makes a perfect warming snack.

In the South, corn is often stripped off the cob and fried in oil. The kernels are mixed with meat or vegetables and served as a full meal. While fried corn is delicious, nothing beats the smell and taste of roasted corn on a wintry Hanoi evening.


NEM RAN OR CHA GIO (FRIED SPRING ROLL)

This dish is called Nem Ran by northerners and Cha Gio by southerners. In Hanoi, the introduction of Nem Ran dates back to a time when Cha Ca had not existed. Although it ranks among Vietnam's specialty dishes, Nem Ran is very easy to prepare. Consequently, it has long been a preferred food on special occasions such as Tet and other family festivities.

Ingredients used for Nem Ran comprise of lean minced pork, sea crabs or unshelled shrimps, two kinds of edible mushroom (Nam Huong and Moc Nhi), dried onion, duck eggs, pepper, salt and different kinds of seasoning. All are mixed thoroughly before being wrapped with transparent rice paper into small rolls. These rolls are then fried in boiling oil.

SOUR PORK SAUSAGES

It takes a lot of time to make nem chua. Pound pork well then add salt, sugar and other seasonings. Mix thoroughly until it becomes completely smooth but stiff paste. Finally add some pepper seeds to the mixture. Slice boiled pig skin into small threads and put them into the meat moisture and pound well. Divide the mixture in to 2 finger- shaped pieces, put it on banana leaf and cover it up closely for 2-3 days. It is best served with fresh garlic.

In addition from the above ingredients, we can make grilled nem and fried nem. For grilled nem, divide the mixture into meatballs and thread the meatballs onto the bamboo skewers. This dish can also be made in another way by covering the meatballs in a banana leaf and grill them. This dish is called “nem lui” which is not less delicious than “nem nuong”.

VEGETARIANS' MONTH OF FINE DINING

It can cost US$20 for a royal party but it could take you a year to wait for a Hue-style meal comprised of salt and rice. Such a meal is only prepared on special days for Hue families, or when they welcome special guests. Hue households take enormous effort in preparing a unique meal with around 20 salt dishes cooked with different flavours. Rice and salt, familiar and simple ingredients for any Vietnamese family, are subjected to culinary alchemy. Roasted salt soaked with grease, dried salt mixed with pepper, salt stewed with chilli, salt dried with citronella, salt mixed with ruoc tom (shredded shrimp), the list goes on...

 

BANH KHUC

Banh khuc is a traditional cake of Vietnam. It’s a rice ball made from glutinous rice, green bean, pork, spices and, most importantly, cudweed (khuc).

First, the cudweed is washed, ground and then mixed with husked glutinous rice. Green beans, that are flayed and turned into paste after being cooked, are then added to the mixture. Finally, the cakes are sprinkled with grains of glutinous steamed rice.
