Celebrate Independence Day in Vietnam with Vietnamese Cuisine!
Vietnam Independence Day presents an unmissable opportunity to enjoy some spectacular Vietnamese cuisine. Traditional Vietnamese cooking is celebrated because of the freshness of the dishes made - chili, garlic, lemongrass and coriander are just a few of the ingredients that help to create this authentic feel.
Vietnamese holidays and festivals are always best accompanied by a generous helping of Vietnam's national dish, pho. This flavorsome noodle soup, traditionally served with beef or chicken, is believed to have originated in the northern part of the country, specifically the Nam Dinh province.
By the late 20th century, pho and a number of other Vietnamese delicacies had spread to Europe, namely France, before going on to make their mark in North America, where they remain incredibly popular.
Did you know that Vietnamese cuisine tends to be super-healthy, largely due to the minimal use of oil? All the more reason to incorporate this kind of cooking into your collection of family dinner recipes, then! Why not test out these recipes from our amazing Dishfolio food bloggers?
