Braised fish with Tram fruits - A perfectly flavored dish found only in Phu Tho
A closer look at Phu Tho Tram fruits
Tram, a specialty fruit of the northern highlands, particularly Phú Thọ province, boasts a tangy, slightly bitter taste. When stewed, it transforms into a soft, chewy texture with an incredibly aromatic flavor. Tram is a versatile ingredient used in many dishes, but it shines brightest in braised fish with Tram fruits.
Uncovering the delicious, harmonious flavors of Phu Tho
Braised fish with Tram fruits is a humble yet beloved dish among the people of Phú Thọ. Prepared with simple, readily available ingredients like fresh fish, Tram fruits, fish sauce, salt, sugar, and chili peppers, this dish is typically simmered in an earthenware pot over low heat to ensure the fish is tender and imbued with flavor.
Best enjoyed with steaming hot rice, the tender, fatty fish harmonizes beautifully with the mild tanginess of stewed Tram fruits and the spicy kick of chili peppers, creating a rich and unforgettable flavor profile.

The Phu Tho secret to a perfect braised fish dish
The secret to the exceptional taste of Phú Thọ's braised fish lies in the quality of the ingredients and the meticulous preparation methods of the locals. With years of experience, the people of Phú Thọ can discern the quality of Tram fruits at a glance. Superior Tram fruits are characterized by a dark brown, glossy skin, free from bruises or mold, and a firm, heavy feel.
