Directions:
- Bring the broth to a simmer, and add the fish sauce and salt and pepper to taste.
- Fill another large pot with water, and bring to a boil. Blanch the bean sprouts for 20 seconds, and transfer immediately to a bowl of cold water; if using green beans, blanch for four minutes and transfer to a bowl of cold water. Drain and set aside. Bring the water back to a boil, add the noodles and cook just until tender, 30 seconds to a minute for some types, up to five minutes for others (check the pasta often). Drain and rinse with cold water. Set aside.
- Scorch the ginger by holding it with tongs above a gas flame or in a dry frying pan if using an electric stove. Turn the ginger until scorched black on all sides. Peel and chop coarsely. Combine with a generous pinch of salt in a mortar and pestle, and pound to a paste.
- To serve the soup, distribute the noodles and bean sprouts or green beans among six bowls. Top with shredded turkey and a sprinkling of scallions or shallot slices. Ladle in the simmering broth, add a dollop of ginger paste and sprinkle on the chopped fresh herbs. Serve at once, passing the limes for guests to squeeze on as they wish.
- Variation: If you like the heat of Thai food, add a couple of Thai or serrano peppers to the mix. Mince and add to the noodles with the scallions and other ingredients.
