Basic Vegetarian Pho Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Basic Vegetarian Pho Recipe). I adapted this Asian pho dish from a traditional Hmong recipe for my vegetarian fiance. The broth is very basic and then each person seasons and garnishes it according to their individual tastes. There is no right way to season and garnish this dish. Be creative and feel free to add your own twist. For flavoring, use red pepper paste, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, and sesame oil.
