Squeezing lemon into the broth, the story that makes people love to drink special broth and Pho or beef noodle soup “was so angry that I cried”?!
The pot of broth was boiling hot and fragrant, making everyone drool when they heard the aroma. But that is not all the essence when someone decides to squeeze a lemon, or add vinegar.
The story of adding lemon, soy sauce and a bowl of broth has once again become a controversial topic in food groups.
If you are a gourmet, have a lot of experience with four-way cuisine, you will surely realize the fact that many of the restaurants in Saigon are usually pho, vermicelli, noodle soup, banh chung, etc. serve lemon, chili, soy sauce, even sugar or chili salt for guests to eat.
In Hanoi alone, some restaurants (especially chicken noodle soup) also prepare vinegar for users who want to add seasoning.
The story of squeezing lemon into broth is controversial
“Sometimes, I have to stay up all night to cook a pot of broth and then watch the customers squeeze lemons and spray soy sauce, then suddenly I feel like I’m awake for nothing, cooking the broth for nothing.” a writing account.
“Once, when I went to Hanoi to eat pho, I asked for a slice of lemon to make it taste better, but the owner said “who will squeeze lemon when eating pho”, at that time many people stared at me, scaring me, and since then I have never eaten. Pho in Hanoi”, DS account comments.
Another said that “there’s nothing wrong with squeezing lemon into the broth”: “Oh, eating pho, eating vermicelli with lemon juice is not wrong, why do many people discriminate?”
The acid content of lemon (or vinegar) is strong, so lemon (or vinegar) will enhance the flavor of the broth of pho or vermicelli and completely destroy the original taste of the broth. Many people think that squeezing lemon into the broth before eating is not knowing how to eat, but that is still the point of view of eating and personal taste of each person.
