Mint – Rau húng lủi – is a popular herb in Southern Vietnamese cuisine. With its distinctive aroma, mint has a light spicy taste and is often used in dishes such as noodle soups (bún, phở) or paired with grilled foods. Mint is rich in vitamins A, C, and minerals, which help boost immunity, reduce inflammation, and aid digestion. In addition to enhancing the flavor of dishes, mint also has cooling properties, helps relieve colds, and promotes overall comfort for the body.
