Rice: The Foundation for the Essence of Pho and Vermicelli
Vietnam is a country of premium rice varieties, with each region boasting its distinctive types. Tài Nguyên rice, with its mild fragrance and plump grains, has long been considered the "queen" of rice varieties, making it ideal for pho and vermicelli. Glutinous rice (nếp cái hoa vàng), known for its sticky and translucent grains, mixed with a bit of plain rice, is a perfect choice for those who love steamed rolls (bánh cuốn).
When selecting rice for making pho or vermicelli, the stickiness and natural flavor of the rice directly impact the texture, elasticity, and broth absorption. High-quality rice produces soft, elastic noodles that absorb broth well, enhancing the flavor and overall experience of the dish.
The Journey from Rice Grains to Delicious Pho and Vermicelli Noodles
The process of creating pho and vermicelli noodles requires meticulous attention and experience.
• Soaking the rice: The rice is soaked in clean water until softened.
• Grinding the rice: The soaked rice is finely ground into a smooth flour.
• Spreading the batter: The rice flour is spread into thin, even layers on a flat surface.
• Cutting into strands: After spreading, the batter is cut into uniform strands of vermicelli or pho noodles.
• Cooking: The noodles are cooked and then rinsed in cold water to achieve elasticity and prevent sticking.
Pho and vermicelli are iconic symbols of Vietnam's culinary culture. The white, elastic vermicelli noodles are made by grinding rice into a fine flour, then shaping it through molds. Similarly, pho noodles require precise soaking and spreading techniques to achieve the desired smooth and elastic texture.
