How to make Vietnamese pho by Angie Hong – Thanh Binh Vietnamese Restaurant in Australia, from SBS Food Safari show.
Pho (pronounced fahr) is a light, fragrant soup eaten for breakfast and all through the day. It is a most loved dish by the Vietnamese. The secret lies in the quality of the stock. Angie uses a combination of marrow bone, oxtail, brisket and a boiler chicken along with cinnamon, star anise and cardamom pods. But her secret ingredient is dried sandworm!
Once the stock is made, Angie blanches rice noodles in boiling water and places them into deep serving bowls. Arrange very thin slices of beef on top and a mixture of chopped coriander and green shallot, white onion and finely sliced jigsaw coriander leaves. She then ladles over the hot stock.
To eat Pho, Angie recommends that you taste the broth then add lemon juice, basil, bean sprouts and chilli to taste.

A video recipe from SBS Food Safari on how to make Japanese Miso Soup with Tofu.
Dashi (Stock)
Ingredients
3 cups water
10cm square piece konbu (kelp)
15g of katsuobushi (bonito flakes)
Directions
1. Wipe the surface of konbu with a dry cloth. Using scissors, make a few snips into the konbu to help release the flavours. Place water and konbu in a saucepan and soak for at least 30 minutes.
2. Place the pan over medium heat and slowly bring to the boil. Just before it reaches boiling point, remove the konbu and discard.
3. Once the water comes to the boil, turn off the heat, put a ladleful of cold water into the pan, then add the katsuobushi.
4. Return to the heat until the water comes back to the boil, then remove from heat and leave until the bonito flakes settle on the bottom of the pan.
5. Strain dashi through a fine sieve. Do not squeeze out the flakes, as this will make the stock very fishy.
