noodle broth with snails
Bún ốc ("snail vermicelli soup") is a dish of Hanoi, Vietnam. Roasted snails, ốc luộc, may be eaten first as an appetizer. Snail congee is called cháo ốc, and canh ốc chuối đậu, is a thin snail soup with green banana, fried tofu and tía tô.[1][2] The dish is believed to have originated during Vietnam's colonial period, when sea snails were introduced into Vietnamese cuisine by French colonists.[3]
