Bun rieu - Vietnamese crab noodle soup! *cooking & mukbang*

Say hi. Hi. Hey guys. So today we are making boom real which is a Vietnamese. Wait, hold on. Oh, wait I thought I was supposed to keep doing this while you talk. Actually you can hopefully it's not too loud. Okay. Okay. Go ahead No, because we're trying to cook fast, right? No, it's okay. We could take our time. Yeah. Oh, okay So we're making boom real which is vietnamese tomato crab based noodle soup You're supposed to use like actual crab in here, but I didn't feel like spending money on crab So a lot of people will also do it this way ground beef and shrimp in here. That's ground pork. Oh ground pork um Wait, when's the last time you made it like three years ago? My sister's been requesting this and i've been craving it and we found a good asian market here Yes, I found in kelsey. I found a a good asian market international market It's called kns market since I don't have actual crab. I'm gonna just use this You can get this at the asian store, but I think this was like five bucks Oh, wow This is come in the compost Have you made it this way before? Mm-hmm. I'm like, what's the other way? I mean, I guess i've also done like crab meat with shrimp and yeah And i've seen some people do just ground pork. Some people do just the shrimp really depends And some garlic powder Um, so yeah, so once this starts cooking it'll be pretty fast we just have to boil the noodles and cook that Onions garlic I know and I don't like garlic. No, we need fresh garlic. Oh I miscalculated Okay, we have to get a bigger pot for this, but i'm gonna just get the broth ready I'm gonna add this chicken broth and then i'm also gonna add water to it and season the water as well Perfect. Thank you Okay, this is my first time using this boom real seasoning cube i'm just gonna add it for more flavor I'm gonna add some of my rock sugar If you don't have rock sugar just use regular sugar and i'm gonna add my chicken powder Just season to taste This is my shrimp paste i'm just gonna mix in water But once you add this it tasted like it was complete I believe it like it literally needs this cooking the noodles. Let me try the broth real quick I don't know if I like the taste Let me see Yeah I think was it those cubes? I don't know. Let's just have you used that chicken broth before? No, we're gonna use the chicken broth. It could have been the chicken broth because that looks questionable We should use my chicken broth. I don't want to waste your chicken broth. No, it's not a waste Okay, hold on. Let me think. Uh for sure. I need more salt though. I think we just need to add all this stuff to it Okay, should I just eyeball it yeah, i'm gonna add some fish sauce Yeah, that's good Oh, no It's gonna be fine. No, it's still gonna be good Because I think this happened to me last time then when I squeezed lime and peppers. It was really good This is what your broth tastes like last time. No like this happened to me last time If I taste it by itself, it's kind of weird But when you add your lime and everything to then it's good. Yeah, I think we just need to finish the broth and it'll be good Trust the process. We're gonna trust the process. How big are you gonna make yours? So we're consistent. Oh, you're doing big ones Or how big should we do it? We're committed now. It's kind of just preference So yeah, it just goes in here and then when it's done it flows to the top And you don't want to put the water too high because then it's going to break it apart. That's why I kind of put on low Hi, Fitzy He says hi Luna bear saying hi. Luna can you say hi? Hi mama This is so fancy, I would never go out of my way to do this Then it has like the right proportion. It doesn't clump Right. Wow You know who does this? Boai. Exactly I think Benoit does this too. My Benoit. Oh, wow. Does she? My grandma on my dad's side Okay, he's first time Trying boomerang Boomerang More Okay, more. He said more Nice. Thanks Jim Okay, i'm just microwaving my noodles because I like mine super hot. So it's been sitting for a little bit If it's cold, it makes the broth cold when you pour it in If it's not burning my mouth, I don't want it. Do you want it if it's not burning your mouth? It's steaming this is what you want. Can you show the food ma'am? Amazing. It's like kind of like bright. Okay. Thank you There you go. It had to focus first Oh, did you spill it? No, it's okay Sorry, I spilled a little On what? the counter Hold on it's getting too hot. Hold on Hey I forgot to get tofu at the store. Okay. Now we go over here. Follow me I'm gonna add the lettuce and it's gonna wilt down you guys. Oh, I almost forgot the shallots They're sometimes like cabbage or banana leaf, but oh right that's like the crunchy one that's like curly And plus they didn't even have that at the store. Oh, really? extra lime every time Too bad, can you say extra lime every time extra lime every time? Here do one more She says it's so um elegantly fried garlic and shallots Oh do it again do it again. Okay, so I added the shallots i'm gonna add the garlic in It's like a sweet tomato acidic-y Broth and it's just so flavorful. Like I don't know how to describe it. Like I love pho, but I also love all types of vietnamese soups Oh For the vermicelli noodles, I got the thinner ones. Some people like it thicker, but I like mine's thin This was the meatball we made The noodles are overcooked though Because it's broken into tiny pieces Like i'm not getting that noodle pool Hurts so good Nice bowl cara I might have to add shrimp paste to my thing I think that's what it might be missing Was there any shrimp paste at all in it? I did put it in but I think I need to put in more Just a little bit Wait It's way better with the shrimp paste. Cara, you have to add some of it to your bowl I think it tastes different from when you cook it inside And you add it to your bowl for sure Um I'm just speechless Can I sit here? Yeah, let me move my stuff Sorry, wow, your bowl looks really good. It's so pretty. Thank you You want to show them? Oh sure, go ahead Look at my sister's bowl. Dang, it looks so good It's really good with the shrimp paste. Good right? Yeah The shrimp paste really makes a difference. I know At first I was feeling lazy when I first woke up. I said to Chewbacca, do you really want boomerang? And she's like, why are you lazy now? I was kind of like, yeah low-key and she's like, oh, that's okay. You don't have to make anything, Chewbacca but then As the day went on I was like, no, I have to make it I was looking at videos of it, too And I was like, it's pretty simple I see some people they cook it with like dried shrimp Like a mini dried shrimp. So what would you rate it out of 10? Like an 8. An 8? Yeah. Yeah, me too I would give this an 8 as well One two Hi Fitzy Okay, so earlier we sang happy birthday to him, but he's actually 10 months you guys We're just getting him ready for when he does turn a year old.
