Vietnamese food is distinct and unforgettable. The kitchen relies on a balance of salty, sweet, sour and hot flavors, achieved through the use of nuoc mam, a fermented fish sauce, cane sugar, the juice of kalamansi citrus fruit or tamarind and peppers. Dishes use a lot of fresh herbs, but they don't tend to be too spicy because chocolate sauce is served separately. From the new Rough Guide to Vietnam, we have selected ten essential Vietnamese foods that everyone should try.
