Everyone knows the best part of Thanksgiving is the leftovers, especially leftover turkey. We always, always make stock with our turkey carcass, and we often use it to make this hue style turkey noodle soup.<\/p>\n

I’m all about leftovers. I mean, once, when I was at a party, someone asked how everyone liked to eat their Thanksgiving leftovers. I literally said that I like to make myself a plate that looks just like Thanksgiving dinner. I kind of got some weird looks and when everyone else answered, I realized why. Most people were saying things like turkey chili, sandwiches, turkey alfredo pasta, things like that. But really, I mean, I LOVE<\/strong> turkey dinner and don’t understand why people get tired of it. But, as much as I love straight up leftovers, I really really like using leftovers to make entirely new dishes. Dishes like this spicy turkey vermicelli noodle soup, a take on Vietnamese bun bo hue<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Hue style soup is so good. It’s lemongrass-y, spicy, and incredibly addictive. If you like pho, you’re in for a treat because hue noodle soup is like pho but turned up times ten. Traditionally hue noodle soup is made with beef, which is why it’s called bun bo hue. Bun means vermicelli, bo means beef, and hue, well, that’s an area in Central Vietnam. So, this is kind of like bun turkey hue: vermicelli turkey in a hue style soup. The best part of this dish, aside from the fact that it’s delicious, is that it comes together pretty fast.<\/p>\n

How to make hue style turkey noodle soup<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Make the stock in the oven. It doesn\u2019t get more hands off than this and it\u2019s perfect fo a lazy Friday you spend on the couch surfing Black Friday deals.<\/li>\n
  2. Pop the turkey carcass, minus any meat left on the bones, into a large pot with lemongrass, garlic cloves, shallots, sugar, water, and fish stock. Let it hang out in a 200\u00b0F oven for at least two hours.<\/li>\n
  3. While you take a break from online shopping, make some some chili oil aka
    \nsat\u1ebf aka what gives this noodle bowl all of its flavor. It\u2019s garlicky, spicy, and full of lemongrass flavor.<\/li>\n
  4. Blend up lemongrass, shallots, garlic, and chilis in a food processor, then add everything to a small pot with netural oil and gently simmer. Remove from the heat, then mix in chili flakes, sugar, and fish sauce. Let cool.<\/li>\n
  5. When your stock is done, cook some thick vermicelli, add a scoop of sat\u1ebf to your bowl, top up with noodles and leftover turkey. If you have herbs (cilantro, mint, sliced green onions, thinly sliced red onions, or Thai basil) it will absolute be a win.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    What is bun bo hue?<\/h2>\n

    A spicy noodle soup from Central Vietnam, specifically the Hue region. Bun bo hue, or BBH as those in the know call it, is herbaceous beefy lemongrass stock seasoned with a spicy sat\u00e9 (sauce). Thick, round vermicelli noodles swim in the red hued soup and tender slices of meat and fresh herbs punch everything up. It\u2019s spicy, savory, sour, and sweet all at once. Balanced, yet in your face full of flavor.<\/p>\n

    Here, instead of the classic beef stock we\u2019ll make a lemongrass turkey stock then flavor it with a chili oil that has lemongrass, shallots, garlic, fish sauce, and two kinds of chilis. It\u2019s seriously delicious.<\/p>\n
