Description
Vietnamese canh — clear broth soups served alongside rice as part of a family meal — are among the lightest preparations in the Southeast Asian culinary range. Unlike the rich, spice-layered soups of neighbouring traditions, canh is defined by its clarity, its freshness, and its brevity — most canh are made in 15–20 minutes from a light broth base. The technique: a flavoured broth (often just pork or shrimp stock), vegetables added in sequence, a small amount of protein, and a fresh herb finish.
