There's nothing better than a bowl of pho and my family will attest to that. The aroma of star anise, cinnamon, ginger, lime and home made stock is extremely satisfying. I made the chicken stock the night before to allow the fat to rise to the top and solidify inside the refrigerator. Then last evening, I simply separated the fat and reheated the stock with the aforementioned ingredients. In less than an hour, I have this gorgeous soup. I added cooked rice noodles, bean sprouts, shredded chicken (from chicken used to cook the stock), cilantro and a squeeze of lime. My wife said that it was the best pho I've ever made because of its nice balance of flavors. Enough said.
