Creating the renowned Earth-Cooked Mì Quảng dish requires a meticulous process from selecting ingredients to preparation. The essence of this dish lies in the broth mixture, which combines pineapple, shallots, tomatoes, finely ground shrimp paste, and crushed galangal... All these ingredients are mixed thoroughly in a large clay pot, then scooped into smaller clay pots and cooked on the stove. Eggs and freshwater shrimp are added and cooked until done.
