Vegan Vietnamese Pho

Not long ago I had a delicious vegan pho in a Vietnamese restaurant in New York City. The broth was heady with sweet spices and, like the traditional meaty soup, was served with rice noodles, bean sprouts and fresh herbs. I asked the waiter if he knew how the chef made the stock, and the sous chef came out and told me it involved lots of vegetables and a combination of spices.

I tried and tested numerous combinations or vegetables and spices and this recipe here I must say beats out all other vegan broths I have tasted.
