About
Bun, vermicelli noodle bowl, features delicate vermicelli noodles as a perfect base for a variety of toppings and flavors. This dish is not only visually appealing but also offers a delightful combination of textures and tastes. This particular dish is topped with crispy egg rolls, succulent shrimp, and fresh herbs and vegetables.
On the Menu
- Vermicelli noodles: Thin rice noodles that are light and chewy, providing a neutral base that absorbs flavors well. Learn how to cook and make bundles of these noodles properly.
- Egg rolls: Crispy and golden, these are typically filled with a mixture of ground chicken, vegetables, and seasonings, then deep fried to perfection.
- Garlicky shrimps: Peeled and deveined shrimp are marinated with lots of garlic and cooked perfectly to accompany the vermicelli noodles.
- Fresh vegetables and herbs: Shredded carrots, cucumber, and lettuce often are included for crunch and color while mint and cilantro add freshness and aromatic notes.
- Sauce: A tangy and sweet nuoc cham (Vietnamese dipping sauce) made from fish sauce, vinegar, sugar, and garlic is drizzled over the dish for added flavor.
- Pickle: A sweet and sour pickle of daikon and carrots provides a tart and refreshing contrast to the dish.
