Are you able to show us how to make the small clear broth soup w/ clintro/green onion garnish on top that always come with that dish when ordering? I really love that clear broth soup. Do you by chance know the name of it?
The clear soup broth in restaurants is an extra complimentary side that they serve up. If you go eat at a com tam place in VN, there’s no soup. The soup usually is a pork base soup that they use for their other noodle soup dish on their menu. Or sometimes pho restaurants give you pho broth too. But usually It’s a “Hu Tieu” broth made from pork bones and dried shrimp. I will definitely do a “Hu Tieu” video soon :)
You can put it if you want. I put lemongrass in the thịt nướng marinade (boneless pork) not the pork chop. Pork chops are thicker and the lemongrass would be burnt by the time it cooks through.
