Mi Quang traces its roots back to Quang Nam province in central Vietnam, giving it its distinctive name. As recounted by my father, this dish emerged during challenging times when food was scarce, prompting people to make the most of whatever ingredients they had at home. This adaptable nature has led to a myriad of ways to prepare mi quang. This versatility is one of the reasons I adore this dish; you can toss in whatever ingredients you fancy.

One delightful aspect of mi quang is its accompaniment with an abundance of fresh vegetables—a perfect fit for someone like me, who relishes veggies. It straddles the line between soup and the drier hu tieu kho. You add just enough broth to the bowl to facilitate mixing all the ingredients, allowing you to savor the thickness of the noodles with each slurp.

Due to the minimal broth, proper seasoning of both the broth and meat becomes crucial. A notable distinction I’ve observed is that mi quang in Vietnam is impeccably seasoned, while versions in the States often lean towards blandness. It’s almost advisable to err on the side of over salting the broth and meat, as the vegetables and noodles harmonize the flavors perfectly.
