How to choose fresh and delicious ingredients
How to choose fresh pork
- To make this dish more delicious and appealing, you should choose pork belly with a balanced amount of lean meat and fat. This type of meat, when eaten, will prevent the dish from being greasy due to fat or too dry due to lean meat.
- When buying, you should prioritize selecting pieces of meat that have bright pink lean meat, while the fat should be cloudy white and translucent.
- Pressing it with your hand will feel dry, firm, elastic, and have the natural aroma of fresh meat, not an unpleasant smell.
- Do not choose pieces of meat that appear dull in color, are leaking fluid, or have small white particles resembling rice grains mixed in.
Where to buy sausages and fresh noodles
- You can easily buy sausages and fresh noodles at stalls in traditional markets, supermarkets, or TasteVN.
- For sausages, you can use tendon sausage, fatty sausage, spring rolls, Vietnamese pork sausage, or cinnamon sausage, all of which are delicious. When buying, you should choose products from reputable brands that are well-packaged with complete information about the brand, production date, and expiration date.
- Prioritize buying products with a production date close to the purchase date and stored at the appropriate temperature.
- Additionally, to ensure safety, you can make fresh noodles at home with detailed instructions from TasteVN.
How to choose fresh and delicious cucumbers
- When buying cucumbers, you should choose those that have a bright green color, uniform color, and a uniformly shaped form from top to bottom.
- Additionally, you should select those that have a thin waxy layer on the surface with many bumpy spots and have a stem tightly attached to the body, as these are young, delicious, and very fresh fruits.
- Do not choose cucumbers that are unusually large, and feel light when held. Because they tend to be spongy, have less water, and can taste bitter.

Prepare and boil the pork
To eliminate the unpleasant smell of pork, take 1 piece of ginger, crush it, and mix it with about 100ml of vinegar, rub it all over the meat and soak it for about 5 minutes, then rinse with clean water.
Next, you place a pot on the stove, add 200ml of water along with the pork, then boil it on low heat for about 15 minutes until the meat is just cooked, then turn off the stove.
Effective ways to eliminate the smell of pork
- Method 1: Use salt to rub evenly around the meat until the salt is completely dissolved, then rinse with clean water.
- Method 2: Blanch the meat briefly with shallots, crushed ginger, and a little vinegar for about 8 minutes until the meat is firm, then rinse with water.

Completion
After boiling the pork, take it out and let it drain. Then wear gloves to slice the meat into thin pieces and stack them evenly before cutting into strips.
After cutting the cucumber in half, use a knife to score the fruit and chop it into small pieces. Gather the lettuce, herbs, and basil together and chop them finely.
Finally, place the fresh noodles in a plate along with some shredded pork, sliced sausage, a bit of pickled carrots and radishes, roasted peanuts, and chopped herbs, lettuce, and cucumber.
Pour a little of the prepared dipping sauce on top, and you can enjoy it!
