Continuing his journey in the bustling city of Hanoi, Luke is up bright-and-early to cook one of Vietnam’s most famous dishes, pho bo (beef noodle soup with rice noodles). After perfecting this well known broth, he ventures to one of the outskirts of this amazing city to learn how rice paper is made, which he immediately applies to his spring roll recipe. In the greater parts of Hanoi, pork terrine and green rice are also on the menu as Luke marvels at the old techniques used and new technologies on offer.
