Taste Atlas has described in detail the richness of the ingredients used to prepare beef pho. The pho broth, the soul of the dish, is simmered from various types of beef bones such as shins, tails, and necks, creating a sweet, rich flavor. The accompaniments are also incredibly diverse with many different types of beef: from thinly sliced, tender and sweet brisket, flavorful ribs, to soft tenderloin and crunchy beef offal. Diners can even enjoy special side dishes such as chewy beef tendons or round beef meatballs.
Beef pho is typically seasoned with dry spices such as cinnamon, star anise, cloves, cardamom, and coriander. It's served hot in a bowl with rice noodles and is often topped with cilantro, sliced onions, and chopped scallions.
