Vietnamese Bread

Originated from French Baguette Bread, Vietnamese bread is modified to be shorter with a crispier exterior and a less condensed interior. With the simple addition of some meats and vegetables in the bread, the Vietnamese sub is one of the nation’s most popular items.

Pork is commonly used and it’s called “Thịt Nuong” in Vietnamese, which literally means “grilled pork.” So, if you have a grilled pork sandwich, it’s called Banh Mi Thịt Nuong.

This popular Vietnamese sandwich can be easily found in most Vietnamese restaurants or Vietnamese-owned sandwich and bakery shops. There are a variety of meat choices—from steamed, pan-fried, to grilled.
