Ingredients
- 1 turkey carcass
- 1 bunch scallions, coarsely chopped
- 1 2-inch piece ginger, peeled, sliced
- 3 star anise pods
- 1 2-inch cinnamon stick
- 1/4 cup fish sauce
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons coriander seeds
- 2 tablespoons fennel seeds
- Kosher salt (optional)

Instructions
- Bring turkey carcass, scallions, ginger, star anise, cinnamon, fish sauce, sugar, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, and 4 qt. water to a boil in a large pot. Reduce heat, skim surface, and simmer until liquid is reduced by nearly half, 2–2 1/2 hours.
- Strain broth through a fine-mesh sieve into a large saucepan; taste and adjust seasoning with salt if needed.
- Assembly: Whisk mayonnaise and chili paste in a small bowl to combine. (If you like it extra-spicy, add more chili paste.) Heat leftover turkey in 1 cup pho broth in a medium skillet until warmed through. Assemble sandwiches with rolls, spicy mayonnaise, hoisin sauce, herbs, scallions, and bean sprouts. Serve with lime wedges and jalapeños alongside, as well as a small bowl of warm broth for dipping.
