Experience the Authentic Flavor of Bún bò Huế at Viet Chopsticks
Viet Chopsticks is thrilled to bring a taste of central Vietnam to Washington, DC, and Woodbridge, VA, with our authentic Bún bò Huế. This Hue-style lemongrass noodle soup is more than just a meal; it's a vibrant celebration of flavor and tradition.
What is Bún bò Huế?
Bún bò Huế, originally from the ancient city of Huế in Vietnam, is renowned for its distinctive balance of spicy, sour, salty, and sweet flavors. The foundation of this hearty soup is its robust beef lemongrass broth, deeply aromatic and infused with the essences of lemongrass, annatto, and shrimp paste. Served with thick rice noodles, the soup is topped with tender slices of beef shank and Vietnamese pork sausage, adding layers of texture and richness.
Flavorful Ingredients and Preparation
Beef Shank: Slow-cooked until tender, the beef shank is savory and rich, perfectly complementing the vibrant broth.
Vietnamese Pork Sausage: Known as chả lụa, this sausage is slightly sweet and beautifully seasoned, providing a unique taste that differentiates Bún bò Huế from other Vietnamese noodle soups.
Thick Rice Noodles: The noodles in Bún bò Huế are thicker and more substantial than those used in Pho, providing a satisfying chewiness that absorbs the flavors of the broth.
