Initially, place the vermicelli you want to make in a bowl. Then prepare enough water in a pan and boil until it boils. After the water boils, immediately pour it over the vermicelli in the bowl.

Yup, the process of boiling the vermicelli is not done directly on the stove, but rather simply brewed with water that has just boiled. This trick is used to prevent the vermicelli from becoming too soft.

"Pour boiling water and let it sit for 3 minutes," added TikTok account owner @nikliu99.
