Popular Types of Dried Rice Noodles On The Market

What is dried rice noodle(Dried Pho)?

Dried pho is one of the signature products of Vietnam’s dried food industry. It is mainly made from rice flour through processes including milling, steaming, drying, and cutting into pho noodle strands.

Unlike fresh pho noodles, which require refrigeration and have a short shelf life, dried pho offers longer storage, easier transportation, and is suitable for both domestic consumption and international export.

Thanks to its convenience, easy preparation, and ability to maintain the distinctive flavor of traditional Vietnamese pho, dried pho has become a popular choice for families who want to prepare authentic Vietnamese dishes at home, including pho soup, stir-fried pho, mixed pho, and quick breakfast meals.

Today, there are various types of dried pho available on the market, with different noodle sizes, thicknesses, and production methods to meet diverse consumer needs.

Features:

• • Uniform noodle shape and size.
  • Good ability to absorb and retain broth.
