if you are really desperate to try it, you can always not use the mix and.... make the broth yourself.
that being said, if you can't get the mix, it's most likely you won't be able to acquire the rice noodles ;p

The quality of the meat is extremely important if you're doing it the traditional way. If you do it right you'll have a really awesome bowl of pho. With fresh herbs the aroma will make you drool haha.

The Chinese ones may look similar but they are very soft and more oily, Vietnamese ones are cripsy and go really well with Pho or any soup.

Just a few additions that the guide missed out on:

The pho mix is just a Vietnamese version of beef bouillon (aka a shortcut to make a beef stock/soup). You can do it the harder way and boil beef bones to start your stock or just use the cubes or canned beef broth. Then add the spices to finish your broth. A few other things to mention are that traditionally pho is eaten with fresh herbs. If you are able to find them, try eating it with Thai basil and sawtooth coriander. Also there are many different and adventurous meat options:

Tai- Eye of Round Beef (Some places in Cali have been known to use filet)
Chin - Well-done Brisket
Gau - Fatty Brisket
Nam - Well-Done Flank
Ve Don - Skirt Flank
Gan - Beef Tendon
Sach - Beef Tripe
Bo Vien - Beef Meatballs
Ga - Chicken
(Don't know the accents as my written Vietnamese sucks)


Seasonings to doctor it up are sriracha (spicy), hoisin (sweet), fish sauce (salty), and lime (sour).

Just call it Chinese Donut. You can find it at Chinese restaurants.

Crap, I want some now. Greasy fried crispy deliciousness.
