Description

Fragrant spices of pho are essential to a flavorful and aromatic bowl of pho. This recipe makes 4 bags, each one enough to cook a large pot of pho for 4!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 tablespoon coriander seeds
  • 4 tablespoon fennel seeds
  • 8 black cardamom pods
  • 12 whole cloves
  • 40 whole star anise pods
  • 4x tea bag or other spice bag

Instructions

1. On a small skillet, roast the spices over medium heat (with no oil) until fragrant, around 2-3 minutes

2. Let cool and transfer to spice bag. Store in airtight container for up to 3 months.

Notes

1. Use whole spices whenever possible instead of ground, for best flavor. Powdered versions here would make the broth a cloudy color instead of clear.
