Hu Tieu is one of the Vietnamese dishes that originates from Chinese and Cambodian cuisine, then adjusted to suit the taste of Vietnamese people.

In a bowl of Hu Tieu, we have rice noodles, a rich broth made from pork bones and radish. It’s often served with sliced pork, shrimp, pork ribs, minced pork, quail eggs, and bean sprouts.

Another very popular version of this dish is Hu tieu kho, aka. “dry” Hu tieu. Instead of having rice noodles and soup in one bowl, you’ll have two separate bowls, and the rice noodles will be mixed with the chef’s secret sauce. This is a must-try version of Hu tieu!
