Char the onion and ginger over high heat for 6 minutes, keeping the pho bo balance on track.
Toast the star anise and cinnamon in a dry pan for 2 minutes until fragrant.
Simmer the broth with the aromatics for 30 minutes.
Soak the rice noodles in hot water for 8 minutes, then drain.
Place noodles, thin beef slices, and boiling broth in bowls so the beef cooks in the hot liquid.
💡 Tip: Simmer the broth gently; skimming the foam keeps the soup clearer.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve with fresh cilantro, lime, and hot pepper.
