Vietnamese Phở Bo: Beef Noodles (For Anthony Bourdain)
Vietnamese pho bo, prepared as a tribute to the late Anthony Bourdain. I'm not a heavy follower of most of the celebrity chefs, but Bourdain did indeed change my life in a small and meaningful way: he introduced me to Vietnamese pho, which is possibly the best noodle soup in the entire world. In 2011 I wached a video of Bourdain's TV series "No Reservations," in which he practically had an orgasm on camera when he ate this Vietnamese noodle dish. It was funny, and it inspired me to try pho myself, in Boston's Chinatown. And my life has never been the same. I will indeed go out of my way for a bowl of pho, and if you've been fortunate enough to experience pho yourself, you'll probably feel the same way. This is what Bourdain spent most of his career working to accomplish: getting people to take risks and try new things, especially new foods.
Preparing this dish is an all-day project requiring a lot of time and a lot of ingredients, and I'd strongly recommend seeking out a Vietnamese restaurant and trying this wonderful dish first, before taking this on yourself. But if you do take the time to do so, it's certainly worth the effort. The recipe for this dish can be found on my Web site, Cast Iron Chaos, at: http://www.modemac.com/cgi-bin/wiki.p...
