i have decided to post some authentic
Vietnamese cuisines on here because i love it. and you uncultured swines don't know the difference. time to learn some real food, bitches!
banh uot. actual translation is wet cake (banh = cake, any type of bake goods. uot = wet). really it's rice flakes
this particular dish is from my local restaurant called
Phu Khang. for a restaurant not in Philly, it's pretty damn good. anywho...this dish consist of thin flakey rice noodles. topped with cilantros, bean sprouts, basils, dried fried onions, and side with the traditional pork rolls, which is like our ham. this place added mini eggrolls on the side. you pour some homemade fish sauce, not traditional, on it. homemade fish sauce is a modified version of the traditional sauce, with more vinegar, sugar, lime, and for those like it spicy, peppers. to add extra flavors to the sauce, you add pickled carrots and daikons to add a crunch.
this version, you can get it with grilled meat instead of pork roll. or just plain rice flakes. but this is pretty much a standardized version. like your cheeseburger with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mayo, and ketchup. anything else diverted from this is either Americanized or incorrect.
this is a great summer meal. light but fulfilling. refreshing and easy to eat. don't fuck it up!
