Vietnamese PHO Beef Broth Mix Review

Vietnamese PHO Beef Broth Mix
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Upon peeling off the foil protective seal, I already knew this could not be an "instant delicious pho broth" miracle powder. I followed the instructions accordingly and the broth came out HORRIBLE. You could taste the "complexity" of the spices and a hint of fake beef, but the combination together gave the broth a "dusty" taste (for the lack of a better word) then leaves a slightly bitter after taste. I thought it was worse than the beef-flavored instant ramen broth.
I tried again with some store-bought, low-sodium beef broth. Hopefully it would bring more "beef" taste to it. The broth came out overly salty and even more "fake-beef." Terrible.
I tasted the powder by itself and it does taste a little "dusty." I think perhaps if you make REAL beef broth and use the powder instead of buying 5 different spices, it would be quite handy, but I'm not sure how to get rid of that "dusty" taste.

Happy Pho is fantastic. Delicious, healthy AND easy to make. I've made the soup and I've used the noodles alone in stir-fry. Both were delicious.
I traveled to Vietnam a couple years ago and have been a big fan of pho ever since. When a friend mentioned Happy Pho to me, I went ahead and ordered some. Healthy Pho I can make at home?? I'm in. Keep in mind that I'm a bachelor and don't do a lot of cooking.
The first time i wanted to make it, I realized i didn't have a few of the basic ingredients that it calls for. So I just stir-fried the noodles with broccoli. The noodles are made from whole grains yet only 2 minutes to boil? A healthy bachelor's dream. In fact, since then I figured out that its pretty easy to just cook them straight in the wok. But I digress.. The noodles were delicious! The tastiest noodles i can recall making at home.
Ok, second time around I went all out and made the Pho soup. I rarely cook for other people, but i had someone coming over so figured we'd eat in, and I'd cook Happy Pho. I felt like Kung Fu Pandd making my delicious secret soup! I was a little nervous, since i hadn't tried the spice pack. Well, it was delicious too. My friend and I both loved it, and it only took about 10 minutes to do everything..
Its a keeper! I can easily see it becoming one of my healthy bachelor staples.

My family lovees to eat pho and since we are on a gluten free diet, we decided to try Happy Pho since it got rave reviews. We were so excited when the box came on our front porch but our excitement was short-lived. The spice packet was awful. It tasted old and bitter (alot of cardamon). I don't mind cardamon, but it tasted off. On the plus side, the noodles were good, but it is awfully expensive to buy it just for the noodles. We bought fresh ingredients as suggested and squeezed alot of lime, but it didn't help any. We ended up throwing away the spice packets and used the noodles to make other things.

We first encountered this product at a take out place on Maui. Then we asked our Thai hostess in Tucson about the sauce and she gave us the Mae Ploy recommendation saying that they use it in their kitchen. It is addictive on Salmon, pasta, vegetables and more.

This distinctive, slightly sweet chili sauce is ideal over chicken as well as seafood, vegetable dishes and as a dipping sauce for spring rolls & dim sum. It's a fairly thick sauce, and if you've ever purchased barbeque chicken from a vendor in Thailand, it was undoubtedly served with this sauce. No preservatives and no artificial coloring, all natural. Also see our sweet chili sauce for spring rolls. We also offer Mae Pranom brand which is the same sauce but a bit more spicy.

What Wok Mei Hoisin Sauce does have, however, is a rich, authentic Chinese Hoisin flavor!We use it as a dipping sauce for our chicken. Traditionally, this is used with Mu-Shu Pork, and is know as the Chinese BBQ Sauce. We spoon it on our rice, our baked potatoes, and we use it instead of ketchup for our fries. Ok, we admit we are hooked on this.

So happy I found this product, as is my whole family. These noodles cook quickly (one minute) and are versatile enough to serve in many different ways. I have added them to soup, served with tamari, tofu, and vegetables, and next intend to put in spring rools (rice wrappers). They hold together well but can get very sticky if you overcook them. For best results add a bit of oil (or rinse well) after cooking so they are less apt to stick together. Good nutritional value overall, and very tasty.

Star Anise Foods is proud to introduce the world's first brown rice Vietnamese noodles with organic green tea. We're so in love with our noodles that we've tried them in all sorts of ways: stir fry, cold noodle salad and different non-Asian soups. THEY TASTE DELICIOUS! Our noodles are made with 100% fiber-rich brown rice. To pack in more flavor and health benefits, we blended organic ancient Shan Tuyet green tea into the mix. Found only on the sides of steep mountains up to 4,000-5,000 feet above sea level, these trees can live up to 500 years. Their leaves are naturally low in caffeine, rich in antioxidants and give that extraordinary flavor to our noodles. Try our Vietnamese Brown Rice Noodles with Organic Green Tea in soup, stir fry, salad, or your imaginative culinary creations. For additional tasty recipes please visit Star Anise Foods' website.

What else can I say but YUMMY! Wow, this chili set is a great idea for anyone who likes at least one of these products. With 8 bottles this set is a steal; and I was not swindled on the size of the bottles. My boyfriend is absolutely addicted to the Mae Ploy Sweet Chili Sauce, he uses it on everything! Probably I could have used a gallon of that. Mae Ploy is the perfect combination of sweet and heat if that's what you are looking for. The rest is mine! All mine! Well, mostly... My boyfriend is not quite as much of a pepper belly as I am; I love the heat that for sure! I'm also addicted to garlic and I have a choice of having the Chili Paste with or with out garlic... which is nice.

Huey Fong Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce (28oz) Review

Huey Fong Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce (28oz)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I'm a bit of spice hound and have flirted with other hot sauces before, but nothing has ever seized hold of me like Sriracha. An old Greenwich Village burger joint near where I worked at NYU used to serve it on the tables with popcorn and the combo was killer. The memory haunted me for years before I finally picked up a bottle. I shouldn't have waited. This stuff is amazingly addictive with a garlicky sweet hot yumminess that's hard to describe. It sits on my table in front of the salt and pepper and I've drained a bottle in a 3 month period. Incredible on eggs, superb on burritos, utterly transforms dull dietetic chicken vegitable dishes from the Chinese restaurant. I put a squirt in the health low-sodium soups instead of more salt and all of a sudden all the flavors perk up. Utterly highest recommendation.
I, personally, do not buy the 28oz size - even though it's almost the same price as the 17oz size. (it's not a total freebie - Shipping is a bit higher on the 28oz). While Sriracha has preservatives and doesn't need refrigeration it does oxidize a bit and at the pace I use it the bottom third of the 28oz gets a bit stale for me, while I suck the 17oz down while it's still fresh. If I lived in a house with more spice hounds (I'm the only one around here) or if I were cooking with it more often in larger recipies the 28oz would be a big bargain.

believe all the 5-star reviews, this broth is restaurant quality...I'm thinking some restaurants are using this broth???
Make sure you buy all the additions (greens, beef slices, bean sprouts, hot peppers, siracha, hoison sauce, etc...)
Only thing I would modify is to add more water. It's a little salty for my taste. Water it down. So, one package suggests 2 gallons of water...I would add an additional gallon of water. Or whatever you like to get it just right.
But it is awesome, it's got the aroma of Pho, it's semi-oily at the top of the broth...I mean...good, good, good!!!

Sit down boys and girls and let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, actually it was a Wednesday; anyway, I decided to go on my lunch hour from work to the nearest Chinese buffet restaurant. I usually do not frequent the buffet lifestyle because I am afraid of what goes on behind closed doors, and the sneeze guard is just gross. I was happy to see that they had healthier fare to choose from, and sushi, so I filled my plate with steamed veggies, sushi and a dumpling or two. I sat down alone at my table, facing away from everyone because I just have this thing about people watching me eat, and something really brightly red caught my eye. It was in a Giant squeezy bottle, with a rooster on the front; I picked it up and read the label "Huy Fong Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce". Hmmm, a condiment that I haven't heard of, ME the so called Condiment Queen of Gainesville Florida. I squirted a bit on my plate, dipped my chopsticks in it and tasted it, GOOD LORD UP ABOVE, it was Huy Fong good, spicy garlicky vinegary so tasty, I then doused my entire meal with the HazMat red concoction and reveled in its goodness. I rushed out after work to the nearest Asian market, of which I frequent a lot, and there it was so many squeezy bottles how did I ever miss them before? I grabbed three, plus two of my regular Hoi sin bottles, a jar of pickled ginger and proceeded to grin like a Cheshire cat to the register. On the bottle it also says its good on pizza, hamburgers, hot dogs, pasta and I have to admit the stuff is good on almost everything. I have used it on all of those things plus baked potatoes, in salad dressings, spaghetti sauce, barbecue, along side dips, its as if it mind melds with whatever it goes on to make a perfect accompaniment for your taste buds. Okay I am dorking out so that means this review is finished. BUY SOME NOW> you won't regret it.
