I find this to be very funny cause she actually thinks thats pho! lol....why get mad people? she should be the one mad for posting such a dumb video of herself! we should be the one pointing fingers while laughing!
How is this healthier or fast? All you did was boil the fuck out of some spices. BEAN noodles ARE NOT a substitute for RICE noodles. Pho is a noodle dish. This is the equivalent of saying im making spaghetti and i served you BEAN sprouts cooked in tomato sauce. AND ITS NOT HEALTHIER OR FASTER THAN PHO NORMALLY IS.
You can't EVER make a fast version of "Pho". Real Pho takes a couple of hours to make. If you can't make it right just dont make it at all. This is sad n a disgrace to Vietnamese people.
PHO is already a healthy food. This chic make it seem like the original pho is not healthy. What make her pho so healthy compare to the original? NOTHING
Did yu notice the corny title in the begining off the video "Phast Pho" soo lame..... Ughh another white person on youtube trying tew make pho ...-__-
@inlacrima2013 Hahahaha that is great.. i had some Phoo in london and im not sure if the chef was vietnamese or even asian, it was still really good :D
Some ppl needs to grow up....I am asian and I make some bomb ass mexican food...now what? It doesn't matter who cooks it...the point of this video is "healthier version of pho". you got something to complain about then make your own video....ugh
duh didn't you hear her say that its already made beef broth? you can buy already made beef broth and it comes in a dark color...you should be proud of this dish...ppl like it...where is your vid?
I don't care what her race is.This really has nothing to do with the fact that's she's white. Instead, it's a pho made by someone who just happens to be white and obviously doesn't have the best recipe for it. I've even had pho prepared by Vietnamese that tasted like this girl's version. It wasn't tasty. On the other hand, I've had pho prepared by Vietnamese that was delicious and clearly didn't cut corners. To prepare a good pho does take hours and a made-from-scratch beef broth.
Rice noodles are bad for you, and im not talking about this pho im talking about pho overall you dont know what they add in it ex msg which has huge amounts of sodium which can lead to many other bad things D:
Kudos my dear! I'm Asian & I make a quick pho similar 2 urs! Stock iz amazing w/ginger, star anise, clove (comforting aromatics), thinly sliced green onionz, shallots - pretty much whatever U like! Pho is so very versatile! U can add whatever U like, yeah, U can have whatever U want, yeah (T.I. iz SO cute! I'd let him hit it). I add a wee bit O'plum sauce & sriracha chili b4 eating my lava hot pho, I add the red chili & basil as I am eating so the basil doesn't wilt & my tongue won't catch fire!
Star anise, its an aromatic, a dried up looking star (no, I'm not talking about Tara Reid - no offense all U Tara-dise fans, I like Ms. Reid as well! Tara's no Donna Reed but she's still as cute as a button!)
that's why it's called "A HEALTHIER VERSION"! food, it doesn't matter what it is, it's up to the individual on how they like their oriental flavors!!!!
...this video disappointed me to an extreme. pho, along with any other comfort food, should NEVER be tampered with. i swear, once she put it in ready-made beef broth...ugh...obviously, if no one in vietnam tried to make a healthier version of pho, it obviously means that we don't want it tampered with! vietnam already has enough healthy foods to consume and we don't need a "healthier" version of pho...and by the way, it's pronounced "fueh" not "fuha". unbelievable.
Oh man..... I'm speechless.. You can call this your own soup invention. It's fine, but please don't use the term Vietnamese Pho. This is a joke and please don't use that term Vietnamese Pho.. Please Please Please
A for effort. at least she's trying and appreciates the dish. fyi ppl, its "pho" not phuh, fah or anything deviated from that at all. i dont care if you're loas and you think she should pronounce it any different,, pho is not an authentic loas dish,, take it from someone who is vietnamese --- give her a break, she's trying.
I give her an "A" for effort. But I thought this was supposed to be a "healthier" version of pho. I know it's a knockoff ghetto version, but healthier? You couldn't get a Vietnamese person to eat it. No offense Michelle, ur cute and all but no. Show us some Austrailian cuisine!
The original pho has cinnamon- the ginger, cinnamon and anice (licorice flavor) all make Pho- PHO! It sounds funny, but get all 3 together and smell them, it smells like Pho
pho is nothing to be rushed with when preparing. 95% of a good tasting pho comes from the long process of simmering all the beef bones, beef, spices and veggies that becomes the soup base of pho. so replacing that process with a canned store broth is insulting to the name ''pho'' what you have here is top ramen with the typical pho vegetable garnish.
That looks disgusting. The soup looks dark and ughhhh. I guess she doesn't know what Hoison sauce is!
If you call broth from a can (with Sodium up the ass and enough MSG to kill you) healthy, then you must be reallllllyy dumb. Pho is a lot more than a seven minute process.
Sorry, don't mean to be rude but I have to say it...This is 'white people pho.' Yes we do say that.
yeah, its definelty not the healthy-er version... Didnt think Pho was that bad for you in the first place... sure its got lots of sodium, but thats all thats bad for you. Asian food usualy has lots of sodium.
yeah if you want all your family and friends to laugh at you and throw up then use her ingredience. I can't believe what I'm watching. This chick is lame. She needs a refresher course on real vietnamese cooking and learn the culture.
I'm sorry to say this, but this chick has NO clue what pho is and how to make it. First of all you don't use cinnamon and chilli. She also used the wrong kind of noodles. It looks like shit and probably taste the same. you don't use mint leaves either.
I don't want to seem mean but its bothering me and i have to say it. she is half fasting everything...like she is in a hurry to get the video done. and the food does not even look somewhat professional.
Wow, first time I seen noodle cooked in the quick broth... Don't want to sound rude, but I think TV dinner is quick and better than that alternative...hmmm
People, please don't try to attempt what she attemped because I was LOLing the whole time. She messed up the noodles and the broth... if you don't know how to make it then please don't make it all, you ruined the good name of Pho. And what's worse is.. you can't even pronounce it correctly.
Wonderful soup, Michelle, and thank you for introducing/Westernizing traditional Eastern dishes so that they may eventually find a new audience. I also appreciate your effort to use healthful ingredients, although pho itself isn't traditionally bad. The use of coconut milk and coconut in general is the worst health problem in that region's food.
cooking that fst is not healthy. ever heard of fast food. fast food= unhealthy except for some but not this. Pho cooked slow is way better tasting and looks better, also the traditional way is way healthier. you made it wrong too
there are no vietnamese restaurants where i live, so i tried this recipe and loved it. i never knew one of my favorite meals was so easy to make. and i don't have to drive 50 miles to get it! thanks
The whole reason of making this Vietnamese dish, is to have all the flavour, and even though the dish takes long, it's suppose to be worth the wait! Fish?? It's beef dammit!! And that's the wrong noodle too. It's suppose to be a nice and FLAT noodle.
This looks too much like someone in a hurry. If that was the case, why go through all the trouble, just use instant noodles, add all the fresh meat, basils etc. It'll taste just as good if not better since it's instant noodles packets got MSG!! MSG is healthier than eating food cooked from someone who doesn't seem to care much.
Nice try with a quick version of the recipe. With the fast pace of how things are these days, we all need our food quick and to go. However, I still would rather recommend for you to make it the traditional way, which is much healthier as long as you don't add too much of certain ingredients. But kudos to you for trying!
well, im vietnamese & i still think it's a great video, we not talking about authentic here. rather we should b proud cuz our food so good that other countries r adapting it. thailand has thailand's pho and it's beef w/ tomatoes. every vietnamese would think it's wrong but it actually taste great. c'mon, lighten up
The 2 points of contention seem to be the color of the broth and the noodles so I'll address both.
The broth color is because I used packaged beef stock which has food coloring in it. I do explain how to make your own broth and acknowledge that it's MUCH tastier.
Noodles where chosen because they are easily available and healthier than the traditional (and tastier) wide Pho noodle.
All recipes are only guidelines please experiment & post vid response
Umm, Michelle, if I didn't watch the video I would assume you are American also. Simply from this post. I don't mean to be pedantic. Yet it's colour, not color. :P
She isn't British, she is Australian. And it wouldn't matter if she was English, as English-English is the same Spelling as Australian-English. blahhh......:)
Uh...this isn't even Pho. The broth isn't suppose to be that dark and the noodle is what makes pho different from every other noodle soup. If you can't get the noodle right, how the heck is it Pho?
Please do not try this Pho for it is not even close to the real thing. Wrong noodle, not enough stock meat, where is the hoisin to go with the meat? Western version needs improvement. Thanks for your effort and for eating neo Vietnamese version of PHO.
Please understand that HHTV isn't about making perfectly authentic recipes. Rather, we show how to adapt great foods to fit a healthy lifestyle.
Though Pho is a pretty healthy dish to start with, we show how to reduce carbs and increase fiber by changing the traditional noodle and omitting the sugary hoisin.
If you are not on a diet (or diabetic), by all means, enjoy traditional Pho - it is delicious and nutritious! If, however, you need an alternative, we hope you will enjoy this version.
Woah woman....This is not PHO?!...You use rice noodles....not bean noodles..oh my..I bet that doesnt taste as good!the broth is all wrong. all of this is all wrong.. I've never seen these ingrediants before on a pho soup......
oh and lol you can see how crappy it was when you put it in the bowl...lol hahaha..
This is the worst pho video on You Tube. Messy preparation, and the making the broth from scratch is one of the key components of pho itself. Not some boxed/canned/boullion broth. True pho broth is simmered for 24 hours, but you can do it in 2 or 3 for a quick fix. Bean noodles? C'mon! Why not just buy instant pho soup, already.
ok, amiga , I give you 5 stars , we need more details , using strainner after you're done with cinamin, herb stuffs... when you get the broil with banh-pho , you will Not taste bitter in your mouth.
Yeah, the o should have an accent mark above it. That ^ on is the wrong one. I used to live in Massachusetts and my favorite Pho restaurants are in and around Boston.
Kudo to you for attempting to make Pho but you got a few ingredient wrong. Please do a few research and post again.
hints: firstly it is spell as pho*? not with ^ symbol. pronounced as "Fuh". secondly, you used the wrong noodle. you don't put the noodles into the pot while boiling because that will over cook the noodle making it soggy.
Here in Massachusetts, all the Vietnamese restaurants spell it with the ô. These are restaurants owned by Vietnamese families.
I don't speak or read the language, so it's not for me to say, but I do have to wonder why they would do that if it is incorrect. It CAN'T be to Americanize the spelling as US English doesn't have ô.
I don't really know why it is spelled like that at where you are, but the correct spelling of Pho is as Pho*?, that "o" has 2 extra symbols which ASCII doesn't seem to have. Maybe that's the reason you/they used ô instead? to do the correct spelling on your videos you would need to install Vietnamese fonts eg VietKey. Anywayz, Thanks for the Video.

This looks too much like someone in a hurry. If that was the case, why go through all the trouble, just use instant noodles, add all the fresh meat, basils etc. It'll taste just as good if not better since it's instant noodles packets got MSG!! MSG is healthier than eating food cooked from someone who doesn't seem to care much.

Hey Michelle, I like your Pho*? . But the

Pho rocks! This may not be my version of Pho, but I admire that you can take what is great and make it your own. Good job!

Nice try with a quick version of the recipe. With the fast pace of how things are these days, we all need our food quick and to go. However, I still would rather recommend for you to make it the traditional way, which is much healthier as long as you don't add too much of certain ingredients. But kudos to you for trying!

Call it a Faux Phô if you will.
The 2 points of contention seem to be the color of the broth and the noodles so I'll address both.
The broth color is because I used packaged beef stock which has food coloring in it. I do explain how to make your own broth and acknowledge that it's MUCH tastier.
Noodles where chosen because they are easily available and healthier than the traditional (and tastier) wide Pho noodle.
All recipes are only guidelines please experiment & post vid response

Uh...this isn't even Pho. The broth isn't suppose to be that dark and the noodle is what makes pho different from every other noodle soup. If you can't get the noodle right, how the heck is it Pho?

Please do not try this Pho for it is not even close to the real thing. Wrong noodle, not enough stock meat, where is the hoisin to go with the meat? Western version needs improvement. Thanks for your effort and for eating neo Vietnamese version of PHO.

Please understand that HHTV isn't about making perfectly authentic recipes. Rather, we show how to adapt great foods to fit a healthy lifestyle.
Though Pho is a pretty healthy dish to start with, we show how to reduce carbs and increase fiber by changing the traditional noodle and omitting the sugary hoisin.
If you are not on a diet (or diabetic), by all means, enjoy traditional Pho - it is delicious and nutritious! If, however, you need an alternative, we hope you will enjoy this version.

you should not change the recipe of pho its a family tradition

DDDDamien 4 years ago
This is the worst pho video on You Tube. Messy preparation, and the making the broth from scratch is one of the key components of pho itself. Not some boxed/canned/boullion broth. True pho broth is simmered for 24 hours, but you can do it in 2 or 3 for a quick fix. Bean noodles? C'mon! Why not just buy instant pho soup, already.

Here in Saigon it's more of a "phuh" sound.
whiskytrader 4 years ago
Yeah, the o should have an accent mark above it. That ^ on is the wrong one. I used to live in Massachusetts and my favorite Pho restaurants are in and around Boston.
aznricejp 4 years ago
Kudo to you for attempting to make Pho but you got a few ingredient wrong. Please do a few research and post again.
hints: firstly it is spell as pho*? not with ^ symbol. pronounced as "Fuh". secondly, you used the wrong noodle. you don't put the noodles into the pot while boiling because that will over cook the noodle making it soggy.
dat2704 4 years ago
Here in Massachusetts, all the Vietnamese restaurants spell it with the ô. These are restaurants owned by Vietnamese families.
I don't speak or read the language, so it's not for me to say, but I do have to wonder why they would do that if it is incorrect. It CAN'T be to Americanize the spelling as US English doesn't have ô.
mistertut 4 years ago
I don't really know why it is spelled like that at where you are, but the correct spelling of Pho is as Pho*?, that "o" has 2 extra symbols which ASCII doesn't seem to have. Maybe that's the reason you/they used ô instead? to do the correct spelling on your videos you would need to install Vietnamese fonts eg VietKey. Anywayz, Thanks for the Video.
dat2704 4 years ago
every vietnamese word in vietnam is spelled with a symbol.so spelling it Pho is wrong it has to have a symbol like Phô or Phở.
