Instructions

  1. In a large pot, combine beef shanks and enough cold water to cover. Bring to a boil.
  2. Drain beef and rinse under cold water to remove impurities. Discard the liquid and rinse the pot.
  3. In the pot, return meat and enough cold water to cover. Bring to a boil, skimming scum that accumulates on top.
  4. When the broth has cleared, add onions, garlic, peppercorns, and fish sauce.
  5. Lower heat to low, cover, nd cook at a bare simmer for about 3 hours or until meat is fork-tender. Season with salt to taste.
  6. In a medium pot over medium heat, bring about 2 cups water to a boil. Add cabbage and cook for about 1 to 2 minutes or until tender yet crisp.
  7. With a slotted spoon, remove from heat and immediately plunge into a bowl of iced water. Let cool completely and drain well.
  8. In another pot over medium heat, bring about 2 cups water to a boil. Add egg noodles and cook for about 10 to 15 seconds. Remove from water and rinse with cold water. Drain well.
  9. Divide egg noodles into serving bowls. Add beef shanks and cabbage. Pour hot broth. Garnish with fried garlic bits and chopped onions. Serve hot.

Fried Garlic Bits

  1. In a small pan over low heat, heat oil. Add garlic and cook until golden and crisp.
  2. With a slotted spoon, remove toasted garlic and drain on paper towels.

Notes

  • Start with cold water. Hot water draws more protein from the meat and bones, creating sediments in the broth. It also has more dissolved minerals from the water pipes, which can add an off taste to the soup.
  • Cook at a simmer.  Rapid boiling may cause agitation that can cloud the broth. Low and slow cooking allows the flavors to develop and become concentrated.
  • Do not overcook noodles. Quickly submerge the fresh noodles in boiling water to remove natural oils. Drain well and rinse in cold water to stop cooking and maintain a firm, chewy texture.
