Prep Time: 30

Cook Time: 1

Total Time: 1.5 hours

Yield: 4-5 bowls

Ingredients:

An onion, garlic and gingerroot, for pho.
 
Some spices and other ingredients for pho.
 

Steps:

  1. *The day before, I prepared shrimp so I had the skin of the shrimp left and saved that for the pho broth. It is optional, but with the shrimp skin - you will get more natural flavors in the broth. I recommend using whole chicken which is very affordable when on sale and then wash and cut into pieces.
  2. Shrimp peels for adding to pho broth.
