=''Bánh mì'': Colorful Saigon Sandwich=


''Bánh mì'' means 'French sandwich' in Vietnamese.  Maybe it started as a 'kitchen sink' recipe in Vietnam, where various leftovers would be tossed into a sandwich to finish them up (like a [[Po' Boy]]). Now bánh mì is sought after by many for the unique and delicious flavors.  There are many different types of bánh mì sandwiches, ranging from chunked BBQ grilled pork, sliced pork pate, shredded grilled chicken, to grilled and smoked fish, sardine, meatball, Chinese-style sausage, and tripe.  

(contracted; show full)* BBQ sauce and mayo


Pickling the vegetables:

Sprinkle light salt over julienned vegetables, wait 5 min, rinse with cold water.  Mix equal parts of water, coconut vinegar (or white) with natural sugar (or white).  Bring to a boil, cool and pour over vegetables.  Store mixture using an appropriate container (glass, polycarbonate, hdpe 5+) in the refrigerator.
