Almost any grilled, fried, or stir-fried mainย dishย may star in southern Vietnamese riceย noodle salads, which are generically calledย bรบn ("boon"), the name of the capellini-size round riceย noodles that define the dish. In Vietnam, they are sold fresh and dried. Abroad, most people use dried noodles purchased at Asian markets, though you can now buy them at regular supermarkets too. Bรบnย bowlย salads come together easily,ย so keep theย noodles in your pantry (seeย below for buying tips).

Every cook needs easy, 15 minute vegetable sides in their back pockets. I have many that feature cabbage -- salads, soup garnishes, and stir-fries. This Chinese cabbage just entered my life by way of Betty Liu's cookbook, The Chinese Way, which was published in 2024 by Voracious/Little Brown. Betty focuses on core Chinese culinary values by drawing a through line from traditional recipes to modern riffs.
