Traditional Vietnamese pho is a flavorful, but arguably difficult and time-consuming soup for many of us. Luckily, Jennifer Olvera has a solution on Serious Eats that’s as easy as tossing all the fragrant ingredients in the crock pot, leaving it all day and prepping toppings just before serving. It’s well worth the wait.
