Food From Home: What Vietnamese noodle soup means to me
Last month on my mama's birthday, I posted my first Food From Home mini film, which featured my mama's cha gio. Today, I'm sharing another Food Talkies "Food From Home” film; this time, it's about bun rieu—a Vietnamese crab and rice vermicelli soup.In case you missed it, "Food From Home” is a new mini-docu film collection that captures personal food stories. As I mention in the film, bun rieu was not my favorite noodle soup growing up, but I developed a fondness for it as I got older and became sentimental about eating the noodle soup with my family on the weekends.This is the second of two mini films I shot with Andrew Gooi, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Andrew is really good at capturing the story and emotional essence behind the food we cook. If Food Talkies were to film a Food From Home film on you, what would you cook?
