Fish Vermiceilli

Coming to Nha Trang, travelers must try the specialty jellyfish fish noodle soup with a light sweet broth, served with fresh “toppings” such as pickled fish, Nha Trang fish cake, and fresh jellyfish. Jellyfish vermicelli is not only available in Nha Trang, but indeed it is the most special in this place. This must-try dish every time guests visit Nha Trang is full of sea flavor, also Nha Trang flavor.

A bowl of jellyfish vermicelli is a wonderful blend of colors and aromas of spices, such as vermicelli, steamed fishcake, fried fishcake, pickled fishcake, which can be made from tuna or sailfish, and fresh jellyfish from the sea…The broth is both clear, light, sweet, not fishy, and very attractive. The jellyfish used to make this signature dish is a thumb-sized, milky white color with thick walls that looks like the copra of a coconut. This type of jellyfish is picked up by fishermen on faraway islands.

The broth is cooked with cephalopods, which are only about three fingers big, with the tail tied like a small bow, boneless, small, and sweet. In addition, there are fish cakes including favored fish: mackerel, barracuda, etc., which are deboned to get the meat smooth and chewy, then rolled into small balls, and then steamed. When eating, just take the vermicelli, vegetables, washed jellyfish, and a few fish balls into the bowl, and pour the hot broth into a bowl of sweet and crispy fish-flavored vermicelli, fresh with each piece of jellyfish.
