Homemade banh mi attempt 1

It all began with a (not so) simple Sandwich

I love a good holiday and as it turns out, I’m also partial to a great sandwich!

If you’ve ever been to Vietnam there is a high chance you’ve tried the famous Banh Mi. Quite simply, it’s a baguette packed with pickled veg and juicy meat deliciousness. On returning home I went in search of one locally. I mean, it’s just a sandwich, someone must be making them nearby…

But you’ve guessed it, I couldn’t even find a poor imitation of one.

So, I’ve challenged myself to recreate the Banh Mi and some of my other favourite flavours from my travels, so I can Taste the Adventure again! The blog has stories from my travels and my (hopefully edible) replication attempts.

Enjoy!
