Chào các bạn và chào mừng các bạn quay trở lại với tập sào podcast Slow and Clear của What's Up English.

Today, we are going to talk about Vietnamese food.
5
Now, I know many of you guys are in different parts of Vietnam.
6
Some of my viewers are in the northern regions, some are in the central regions, and some are in the southern regions.
7
So because of that, I will talk first about food overall in Vietnam.
8
So if a foreigner asks you like, what is Vietnamese food like?
9
You will be able to give them a description of food in Vietnam.
10
After that, I'm going to talk about each region.
11
So first, I will talk about the northern region and the food there, like food in Hanoi.
12
And then the central region.
13
And then finally, I will talk about the southern region.
14
I won't only talk about the food in general, but for each region, I will also talk about a famous dish.
15
So no matter what region you live in, you will be able to talk about the food from where you are from.
16
Then finally, at the end of the podcast, I will tell you guys which type of food I like more.
17
If it's Western food or Vietnamese food, which one do I prefer?
18
And guys, in this podcast, there will be quite a few words that might be new for you.
19
So remember to download the PDF in the description below that has all of the vocabulary words from this podcast, as well as the transcript so you can read everything I said again and practice speaking for yourself.
20
All right, let's get back to the podcast.
21
Vietnam is a country with a ton of agriculture, right?
22
And agriculture means farming.
23
Vietnam grows a lot of vegetables and herbs.
24
So, of course, there are a lot of fresh vegetables and herbs in Vietnamese cuisine.
25
By the way, the word herb, you can say herb like they say in the USA, or you can say herb.
26
It's up to you.
27
And some staple ingredients in Vietnamese food are things like rice, of course.
28
And the rice can come in different forms.
29
So it can be steamed rice, which is probably the most common one.
30
Rice wraps.
31
It can be in rice noodles.
32
It can be sticky rice.
33
And one very common drink throughout all of Vietnam is iced tea.
34
Chà rà.
35
So if you're wondering how to say chà rà, you can just say iced tea.
36
Iced tea.
37
And then there are the herbs and vegetables.
38
Some common herbs in Vietnamese cuisine are basil, cilantro, mint, and then there are vegetables like green onions, bean sprouts, bamboo, cabbage, morning glory, garlic, many different ones.
39
The proteins in Vietnamese food, seafood is common, so you guys eat a lot of shrimp and fish.
40
Also pork, beef, chicken, and tofu.
41
Now, sauces are a huge thing in Vietnam.
42
I read somewhere that Vietnam is the country of sauces.
43
So in Vietnam, fish sauce is very common.
44
You guys put shrimp paste in your soups.
45
There's soy sauce.
46
And there's, of course, a huge variety of dipping sauces.
47
And again, Vietnam is very famous for dipping sauces.
48
Now the ways of cooking Vietnamese food can be grilling, boiling, steaming, and stir-frying.
49
And of course, there are more, but those are the main ways of cooking.
50
Of course, the cuisine of a country is going to be influenced by the geography.
51
So for Vietnam, it allows to grow a lot of vegetables, so there are a lot of vegetables.
52
the cuisine but also the countries around it.
53
So Vietnamese cuisine was influenced by China, other countries around Southeast Asia, so close to Vietnam, and especially France.
54
France brought coffee and like baguettes, like the loaves of bread, to Vietnam which are still very popular to this day.
55
So that was Vietnamese food in general in a nutshell.
56
Now I will go over each region.
57
So let's start with the northern Vietnamese food because in the north the climate is cooler than in the south so they don't grow as many vegetables.
58
Because of that the food in the north is milder than the food in the South.
59
Milder means not as spicy.
60
And they don't use quite as many vegetables like fresh vegetables as in the South.
61
Also, the food in the North is more salty than sweet.
62
And I will talk about Southern food a bit later.
63
One very common dish, of course, in the North is pho, right?
64
Pho is Vietnam's signature dish.
65
If you ask any foreigner around the world about Vietnamese food, they will probably just tell you pho, right?
66
Or as they say, pho.
67
Even I used to say pho before I came to Vietnam.
68
And then my friend was like, it's not pho, it's pho.
69
And I'm like, okay, fine.
70
Pho.
71
So yeah, there are two common types of pho and that is beef and chicken pho.
72
Now these two types are different.
73
So the beef is usually thinly sliced and it can be pre-cooked or raw.
74
And if it's raw, it is put in the bowl and then the hot broth poured on top will cook it.
75
And speaking of broth, one sign that the broth is good is that the color is clear, but it's really rich and flavorful.
76
Really delicious, even though the color of it is pretty clear.
77
For chicken pho, they usually use chicken leg that is chopped up, including the skin and some bone.
78
Like I said before, Northern Pho is different to Southern Pho because the Pho in the South is a bit sweeter and bolder than the Pho in the North.
79
And if you go to any pho restaurant outside of Vietnam, like if you went to Canada or the USA or England and you went to a pho restaurant, it would most likely be southern pho.
80
Because I'm assuming most of the people who left Vietnam, who emigrated from Vietnam about 40 years ago, 50 years ago, were from the South.
81
So when they opened pho restaurants, it was Southern pho.
82
For garnishes in pho, in the North, often they add things like green onion and cilantro.
83
Whereas in the South, they will add bean sprouts and basil.
84
And in the South, they might also add Sri Racha sauce or hoisin sauce.
85
But in the Northern Pho, they usually don't add those sauces.
86
Maybe they will add some vinegar or some chili sauce, but that's about it.
87
Now, if you want to talk about some ingredients in Pho, You can say it has beef bones, star anise or star anise, ginger, cinnamon, charred onion.
88
So charred just means burnt.
89
Cloves, cardamom pods, and of course, salt, fish sauce, or MSG.
90
And the way they cook the broth is they simmer everything for a long time.
91
So I can't explain exactly how it's cooked because I don't really know.
92
But what I can tell you is that they put many ingredients in a large pot and they simmer it for a long time to pull out all of the flavor.
93
All right, so let's move to Central Vietnamese food.
94
So Central Vietnamese food is known to be spicier and bolder in flavor than the North and the South.
95
Now, the dishes are also more complex because in the central area is Hue.
96
Hue used to be the imperial capital of Vietnam, like the old capital.
97
And royalty lived there.
98
So they would make the dishes more intricate and complex.
99
and they would also be smaller servings because in one meal they would have more smaller dishes.
100
Now the dish we will talk about from the central area you can probably guess is bunbahue.
101
Now the secret in this dish is in the broth.
102
The broth is spicy, sour, salty, and umami.
103
And it's a symbol of the bold nature of the cuisine in this area.
104
Unlike the clear broth of pho, the broth of wun hua hui is red.
105
And that is from annatto seeds.
106
So this dish can also be seasoned with lemongrass, shrimp paste, and the meat is usually marinated beef shank.
107
Also, they can put in pork knuckles, oxtail, and one special ingredient is pork blood cubes.
108
All I could find on the internet for the English word for these was pork blood cubes.
109
It doesn't sound very appetizing, but that's what you can say.
110
Now, the noodles are called rice vermicelli noodles.
111
So if you're wondering what is wun in English, it is vermicelli noodles or rice vermicelli noodles.
112
You can eat it with vegetables and herbs on the side like basil and sliced banana blossom, bean sprouts.
113
And the chili paste with wun ba hui is so spicy.
114
I wouldn't call this chili sauce because it's more thick and it's not like a liquid.
115
So I would say it's more like a chili paste.
116
Now let's move to the southern Vietnamese food.
117
So southern Vietnamese food is usually sweeter because they use more sugar and coconut oil in their cooking.
118
And they also use more herbs and vegetables because of the warm climate and the Mekong Delta, which is a very fertile area where they can grow a ton of agriculture.
119
So there's also a lot of seafood because, again, it's close to the Mekong Delta rivers and it's near the coastline.
120
For the special dish of southern Vietnamese food, can you guess it?
121
If you guessed kamtam, then you are correct.
122
In English, kamtam can be called broken rice.
123
This dish actually has a pretty interesting history, which is back in the day.
124
So in the late 19th century, which is actually the late 1800s, the farmers would eat broken rice because there was not enough full rice to go around.
125
or it was too expensive.
126
So what they did was they ate broken rice.
127
And broken rice was a byproduct of the rice milling process.
128
The process of making rice would create mostly full rice grains that we see today.
129
But a byproduct was also many of these broken grains of rice that were kind of set aside.
130
So these broken rice grains were cheaper than the full ones.
131
And so people thought it's still rice.
132
We might as well eat it.
133
This dish started to become more popular.
134
And then later on, they started to modify this dish to suit the tastes of visitors from like France, America, China.
135
So they added grilled pork, which is what we often see now is like a grilled slice of pork.
136
And also there is steamed omelet.
137
So a steamed omelet is basically steamed egg.
138
I saw online some people called it steamed egg meatloaf, but egg meatloaf doesn't really make sense.
139
I would just call it a steamed egg omelet.
140
So now to have gum thumb, broken rice, people have to purposely break the rice in order to have the rice like that.
141
Some of the main ingredients of this dish are pork chops, thinly shredded pork skin with roasted rice powder.
142
So if you were wondering what is the name of that powder on the pigskin, it's roasted rice powder.
143
Again, so steamed omelet or steamed egg meatloaf.
144
And on the side, there are some vegetables like tomato and cucumber and also you can garnish it with green onion.
145
There's also usually a sweet chili dipping sauce that can be made from fish sauce, garlic, chili, sugar, vinegar, and a bit of water.
146
So that about sums up a lot of important information about Vietnamese food.
147
I know it's not everything.
148
I know there were many things that I missed simply because we don't have the time to talk about it.
149
There's so many interesting things about Vietnamese food, but I hope that was useful for you.
150
And now I will tell you guys which food I like more, if it's Western food or Vietnamese food?
151
And the answer is, it depends, right?
152
Sometimes I want to eat Western food.
153
Sometimes I want Vietnamese food.
154
Now, one thing that's really great about Vietnamese food is that it's light.
155
You can eat a lot of it and you won't feel sick.
156
So personally, I can eat pho every day and I do eat pho every day for lunch.
157
I go to the same restaurant for beef pho.
158
I don't even have to say anything because they know what I'll order.
159
But then sometimes if I want to eat something that is heavy, that will make me feel really full, that has like oil in it, then I will eat some western food.
160
And for me, it's not just Western food, but any international food, really.
161
Like I love Indian food, Mexican food, American food.
162
I'd say those are my three favorites.
163
Greek food is really good.
164
Italian food.
165
So Vietnamese food, I eat the most often, but sometimes if I want something heavier, something really rich, then I will go for Western food.
166
And again, one thing I really love about Vietnamese food is you can eat it and you're not going to feel sick.
167
You don't really have to feel bad because it's a really light food that you can eat and go and you won't be in a food coma after you eat it.
168
So guys, that is it for this podcast.
169
I really hope it was useful for you.
170
