What nem nuong is

Nem nuong originated in the Ninh Hoa region. Pork is ground and kneaded with spices, skewered on bamboo sticks and grilled over charcoal, which gives a slightly charred golden outside and a soft, sweet inside. The thick golden-orange dipping sauce is what makes the Nha Trang version different. You wrap the meat with herbs in rice paper and dip.
