How to choose fresh and delicious ingredients
How to choose fresh pork bones
- Choose bones that are of moderate size and have little fat.
- Fresh pork bones usually have a bright color, not pale, and no strange smell.
- The temperature of the bones when purchased also affects their quality; do not choose bones that are cold or frozen as they may have been preserved for a long time and are no longer fresh.
How to choose fresh shrimp
- You should choose live shrimp that swim actively, with a transparent outer shell and a slight smell of seawater, and the legs tightly attached to the body.
- Fresh shrimp will typically have their tails curled together. If the tail of the shrimp is fanned out, it means the shrimp has been pumped with chemicals or injected with water to make it plump, so it should not be purchased!
- Additionally, you should avoid shrimp that are slimy, have bodies bent into a circular shape instead of being straight. When you press gently and move on the shrimp’s shell, you feel a roughness as if there are particles in the shell.
- To be assured when choosing, you should buy shrimp at reputable seafood stores to avoid mistakenly buying chemically treated shrimp!

How to choose delicious pork sausage (giò sống)

- Do not buy sausage if you see any strange black spots.
- You can also make sausage at home using the recipe suggested by TasteVN.

Prepare the Ingredients
To eliminate the odor and clean the pork bones, after purchasing, briefly blanch them in boiling water mixed with a little salt for about 2 minutes, then take them out, rinse with cold water, and let them drain.
How to Clean Pork Bones Effectively:- Another handy tip is that you can add a little white wine to the water when blanching the pork bones. The wine can effectively eliminate unpleasant odors.
- You can also use lemon, vinegar, salt, or ginger to rub on the pork bones and let it sit for about 5 – 10 minutes before rinsing with water.
Remove the heads of the shrimp, rinse thoroughly, and let them drain completely.
Wash the carrots and radishes, peel them, and then cut them into bite-sized pieces.
-
Marinate the Meat
Place the pork bones in a bowl, add 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of monosodium glutamate, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 tablespoon of seasoning powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Mix well and marinate the bones for 10 – 15 minutes to allow them to absorb the spices.
-
Cook the broth
Place a pot on the stove, add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil. Wait for the oil to heat up, then add the pork bones and sauté for 3 – 5 minutes until the meat is firm. Next, pour 2 liters of water into the pot, add the radish and simmer for 20 minutes before adding the carrot.
Cook until the water in the pot boils, then add the meatballs and shrimp, cooking for another 10 minutes.
After that, season the broth with 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of pepper, and 1 teaspoon of seasoning powder.
Tip: You can adjust the seasoning according to your family’s taste!

Boil the noodles and eggs
Put a pot of water on the stove to boil, then add the noodles and boil for about 5 – 8 minutes. If you want softer noodles, boil them for another 5 minutes. To prevent the noodles from sticking together, add a little cooking oil. Once the noodles are cooked, drain them in a colander and rinse with cold water to drain.
Next, put another pot of water on the stove and add the eggs to boil for 7 – 10 minutes. When the eggs are cooked, remove them and place them in a bowl of cold water for 1 – 2 minutes before peeling.
