HANOI - CNN Travel has freshly listed pho (beef noodle soup) of Vietnam among its nominations for 20 of the best soups around the world.

The top-20 list article published on the news site on Jan 8 quoted Andrea Nguyen, author of "The Pho Cookbook”, as saying Pho is among Vietnam’s most recognised culinary exports, Vietnam News Agency (VNA) reported.

And while today’s pho restaurants serve a wide range of flavors, beef is the original. According to the article, the broth is simmered for hours with cinnamon, star anise, and other warm spices to create a wonderfully aromatic base for this rice noodle soup.

Other dishes in the list include Banga of Nigeria, Borscht of Ukraine, Bouillabaisse of France, Caldo verde of Portugal, and Chorba frik of Algeria, Libya, and Tunisia. - BERNAMA-VNA
