As someone who had their family cook overnight and occasionally sometimes just in the morning. The flavor was consistent, it more so narrowed down to the meat and the texture it takes on. I don't eat meat anymore, but when I did, I preferred the meat that cooked overnight. It just sort melted in your mouth. There would be a roast that cooked in the broth over night with some ox tail and seasoning, and then when we served the food we also had fresh thinnly sliced steak that would have the broth poured over the top to cook. I never cared for that part the text just wasn't my thing, but that roast was gold, and it always to me was better when cooked overnight. I know not everyone cooks it this way and honestly for the most part there's no real wrong way to cook phó, there are several different types, however there are certainly things that do make the experience a mouthgasm. What I mean is there is a difference in how Thai, Lao, and even Vietnamese people make their phó and in their own ways it's all very tasty! I've learn to appreciate things for what they are and not just how I want them to be, there's a beauty within it. As far as that situation, what really matters is that no matter who made it, they took time out their day to do so and that it made a tasty meal, evennif it wasn't to the preference of the other.

That's one happy family, one that I don't have.

The assessment at the end is accurate I think. Pho is better for daily eating and for the Vietnamese palate, Japanese ramen is a bit too heavy and salty. We tend to prefer lighter flavors, and most Vietnamese dishes are full of herbs too. Pho is nourishing and refreshing. As a Vietnamese I do like ramen every so often but pho fits our palate better.

Definitely Pho for me. My absolute favorite thing about Pho is that it precisely nails every angle of the flavor pallet and can be catered to your preference with sugar salt spices and veggies So savory, like he said, in a healing kind of way. Smooth. The noodles are like glass, so light and just get coated in that all that flavor like they’re wearing all wearing winter coats of 4-24 hour cooked broth. Generous delicious thin slices of meat. Or chicken or shellfish. But traditionally meat! ANDDD my favorite part, it NEVER upsets the stomach. If anything it soothes it. A satisfying full. Not heavy and waddling out of the resturaunt. So full, so satisfied. SO MUCH clean beautiful perfect flavor. SO aromatic without heavy rich thick broth. I’m Italian and grew up eating that way. But classic American Jersey style Italian food is so hard on my stomach I never eat it now even though it’s all I ate growing up. I have IBS and heavy greasy foods and gluten turn my stomach upside down. Ramen is phenomenal as well but as my taste developed into my late teens and adulthood, I always go for the more clean concise flavors. My roommate leans toward fats so he would definitely go Ramen. Also I’m not a big pork fan. Definitely enjoy the aromatics and more precise flavors in the Vietnamese pho. Damn I need a bowl now…

I am Vietnamese, I used to like ramen but now I am realizing, it's very one dimensional and your palette just gets tired after a while. So I am agreeing with you. As I get older, I also like more layered flavours so that every bite is different. Pho hits all angles, sweet, savoury, sour, spicy, freshness, crunch, tenderness of noodles, meaty, beefy. When you are done. It's a very different type of feeling of satisfaction. Not like the satisfaction of finishing a tub of ice cream and hating yourself for being a pig.

@kemkumkim

@@NhiepKen agree, I believe the origin of Pho was meant to be served as breakfast. Since Pho was first appeared in the North of Viet Nam, people used to eat it in the morning with a kind of slogan which was “nothing could chase the early morning’s cold away better than a hot bowl of Pho noodle”. Traditional Pho has to be prepared and cooked in a long time, mostly people let the bone broth cooked overnight and have it ready to serve in the early morning. So yeah, as a Vietnamese myself (though I’m from the center of Viet Nam, not from the North nor South) I believe Pho was originally a breakfast meal. Sorry for my bad English guys

20 years or so I tried the most amazing Pho made by an old lady on street corner in Ho Chi Minh City...We sat on upturned buckets and rested bowls on a plank of wood, but it was better than any restaurant has been able to reproduce for me since. As for Pho v Ramen, it's got to be Pho or me, even though I love Japanese food. I would travel a long way for Unagi.

I used to work at a pho restaurant, and I'd like to clarify the traditional method of making pho. To achieve a clear and light broth, bones are simmered for hours. Seasonings and flavors are introduced to the broth about half an hour before serving. If you slow-cook the broth with sugar and herbs, it can result in a darker broth, which is often the case when you order pho late at night in a restaurant.

The Pho is so light and filling that it really is soothing, while the tonkatsu is hearty and welcoming like a comfort food. I love both honestly. Chicken pho and tonkatsu are some of my favorite ramesn (when I'm not eating spicy ramens) and I may just go make one of the cheap pre-packaged ones I've got in my pantry now cause its cold and rainy :P

How I’ve had these dishes is on a cold day go with pho, but on a cold and snowy day go with ramen. That’s just how I grew up with it.

Pho is my late breakfast or brunch love of my life after a night of partying - Ramen is the quick get home late from work dinner while watching Netflix! Super comfort food. I love them both ---- Noodles RULE!

I am Vietnamese and every morning I have a Pho but I didn't know how long it takes until I watched this video!

Hey Josh try Bún Riêu Cua, white thin noodles with grind crab, pork trotters, tomato, some vegetables and my favorite part "juicy fluffy blood cake". Not so popular like Phở but trust me it's masterpiece

For me, pho is my preferred noodle soup. Main cuz I basically ate it every other day in college cuz there was an amazing vietnamese restaurant (that also made awesome boba tea) like a 5 min drive from campus. Ramen I had like twice a year at most, like it too but not my go-to.

Agreed. Pho for whenever, Ramen is best for cold days. I prefer the freshness of a good pho though

I love both

garlic rope shot at the end inspired me fr✊

Pho is so delicious and comforting! I love it for cold weather, sick days and after a night of drinking.

even after living in japan for 12 years and have eaten some of the best ramen around i can safely say that a great bowl of pho will beat any kind of ramen any day. theres a certain depth to its broth that no umami bomb could defeat.

@@wolfsokaya the flavors from the Beef bones aren't MSG 🤣. Pho does not equal MSG 😆

The Pho needs some sliced green onion to give more flavour to the whole bowl, you don't need to add it all the time depend on if you like it or not, but Pho will taste much better with green onion. In Vietnam, the Northern people usually serves Pho with a small bowl of poached eggs topping with some green onion or "bánh quẩy". The Southern people don't but they add basil and "spiked coriander". The bone you used to cook the broth can also be added to the bowl, both version taste delicious

When you are content to be simply yourself and don't compare or compete, everybody will respect you.

Josh - this recipe is A-MAZING! Made it last night for my friends and it was a huge hit. I added some "qwispy" fried chicken skin for a garnish. OVER THE TOP. I love your recipes! Thank you so much for all that you do to help us homecooks out. Love your channel!

Highly recommend you try Bun bo Hue (Bún bò Huế) next time. It's Pho's cousin, with a kick to it and thicker noodles, similar to udon (?) Hands down my go to whenever i feel like having sth spicier but still kinda Pho-ish.

This is a hard one. Hard to find good Ramen but when you do...bam! Pure Art! Pho is sooo good, easy to make and easy to spice up. Pho is my quick soup(pho bo base) when I want to make something quick and heavenly. Ramen is a 3 day process even for simple shoyu with chashu.

If pho is quick, you are not doing it right. Beef bones take at least 6 hours and can go up to a week. Do you make your own beef balls?

I have so much respect for how much work Josh puts into his dishes, there's a reason he's been awarded the Uncle title.

I was on a ramen binge during the pandemic in 2020-2021 but pho had retaken its place as my favorite noodle soup. My cultural heritage is in Laos and we have other noodle soup dishes like boat noodle kaosoy or kaopoon but for me, pho usually always has a very clean taste and almost seems to refuel you with electrolytes. It’s my choice for clearing up any type of congestion as well. I don’t think any soups can compete with the rich beef bone broth and subtle hints of extremely fragrant spices that is pho.

i love both.

OMG PHO, MY FAV BREAKFAST FOOD, THANKS FOR THIS

I've always considered pho great for sick days; it's got that zing that helps you get better faster. Meanwhile, ramen is great for the drunchies. So it's kind of nice to see that assessment (kind of) hold over here.

Nice vid. I love both and you’re 100% correct it depends on the mood.

My Nisei palate is way more accustomed to the flavors in ramen, but I definitely find phở to be a bit easier to eat regularly. Having more than one bowl of ramen in a week or two can leave me feeling worn out, but I can have phở 3 times in a week and feel just fine.

I once ate a bowl of pho with clear broth but with a lot of flavor hidden in it. I think it's the ultimate in broth

I was definitely not expecting the all that cake. 😂 1:28

I don't really care much about the winner i just love that Josh pointed out that Pho is light and you can eat it daily, it goes down easy and refreshing cause of the herbs~

Compare Pho to Ramen is like comparing apples to oranges. Each has its own uniqueness and will appeal to each personal differently. I like to mix them up when it's nice a cold outside; especially during rainy season. Let's be real and say that they're both delicious and just enjoy them for what they are and not pitch one against the other.

PHỞ is better and good for health because of rice noodles, herbs and delicious broth. You can eat Phở everyday but do not care of your weight. I love Phở and Phở's hometown is north vietnam, north vietnamese always eat Pho as breakfast. Yummy 😋. Besides, Ramen is symbol of Japanese noodles, it is delicous too. Loving Phở from Germany 🇩🇪🇩🇪.

Nothing beats a great bowl of Pho!

I love both but your ramen just looks so delicious and decadent

As a ramen lover, I choose Pho every damn time. Its also the only soup I am willing to regularly make batches of due to the aforementioned lightness of it.

Well Vietnamese here and I think Vietnamese don't usually cook Pho like that. Usually the broth is made by boiling and simmering pork/beef/chicken bones for hours, and they are not roasted before that. We also don't use brown sugar here 😢 Also if you eat Pho in traditional Vietnam store, the rice noodle is a bit bigger. But yesh, yours still looks good
