Ten Speed Press The Pho Cookbook: Easy to Adventurous Recipes for Vietnam's Favorite Soup and Noodles

The first time I had pho was with a friend in San Francisco. Cork had spent years in Vietnam, both growing up there with his CIA father and as a prisoner. Minh, the owner and chef was from Hanoi and the two men were close friends. Since then I have had bowl after bowl of pho but none have been as good as Minh's. In my own attempts at making pho, most have been horrible, the Pho Cookbook has been the closest in helping me achieve what I had at Minh's. While it's not 100% there yet, it's getting closer.

Beautiful addition to my cookbook collection.

A very good cookbook and arrived promptly

Very comprehensive

This book aims to teach you the building blocks that make a great pho rather than throw a ton of recipes at you and it succeeds nicely. Working through the recipes, there is a nice progression and I ended feeling like I had a real grasp on the art of pho and could make my own versions with confidence. The book is also quite beautiful and well made!
