Originally, Vietnamese breads stemmed from its French counterpart but gradually, they
were renewed to adapt to Southeastern people’s taste and now they are considered as a
symbol of Vietnamese cuisine. There are various recipes for making a banh mi thit. For
example, some people who love jambon or would put them together into their banh mi,
while some would eat it with Vietnamese pork sausage. The first layer of my own favorite
banh mi thit must be pork pate which has to be made by the store near my house, then it
is topped with lots of sliced Vietnamese pork sausage and one sunny-side up fried egg.
Finally, it could not be done without some pickles and cucumber.
It’s very simple to prepare a classic Vietnamese bread, but it tastes so good. And it’s very
healthy because of the veggies you add. I and many other Vietnamese people always have it
for breakfast because I don’t have much time to prepare a big meal in the morning and if they
are in a hurry, they can buy it easily on the street. Banh mi stands appear in nearly every
street; in fact they are like 100 meters away from each other. The
bread costs very reasonably too; it’s just about 20.000 Vnd, which is equivalent to just less
than a dollar. Sometimes, I even eat it for lunch of dinner if I am short of time. I have also
heard that foreign travelers are so in love with our Vietnamese bread that they add it in their
must-try food list.
