Did I bring home the perfect Banh Mi recipe from Vietnam?

[@nswordsn4249]

As a Vietnamese, watching your video makes me want to go and buy a Bánh Mì now, 2a.m in the morning. And guess what, I got my Bánh Mì after 5 mins of jogging. Saigon what a place to live.

[@NocturneBuilderBase]

The respect to the food culture of the Vietnamese cuisine... The dedication to try out not just one, but numerous different recipes of banh mi in Vietnam to find the perfect combination... The length to which you went, I can clearly tell, to make sure you got every ingredient and every process right... It really shows. The way you made your banh mi is nothing short of a local cook, just as other videos you have made on Vietnamese dishes. you have my great admiration as a chef.

[@newinspiration2108]

As a Vietnamese, I was raised on Banh Mi through most of my childhood. This recipe not only checks off all the important aspects of the Banh Mi but also brings back my childhood memory. Well done, Andy!

[@vhnh167]

Hey Andy, great video! Just a few tips to up your Banh Mi game from a Viet who loves food: 1. The pate used in Banh Mi should be made also with ground pork, pork fat, and some bread/sandwich. This combo should make the pate smoother, meatier, and fattier. 2. The mayonnaise in Banh Mi is actually closer in taste to aioli than mayonnaise found in stores. Usually it's made from egg yolk, lots of seed oil (sunflower, soy), a bit of salt, and one squeeze of lime juice instead of vinegar. 3. You can either season the pork belly (with five spices and salt if you want it simple) before roasting or boiling the pork belly in a spice water bath (star anise, cinnamon sticks, salt, coriander seeds, shallots, etc.) before applying a layer of salt in roasting. Without seasonings, the drippings you get would be rather bland. 4. For the second type of Banh Mi using fish sauce, you should use a sweet-sour fish sauce (made from fish sauce, sugar, garlic, vinegar, and water) combined with drippings from your roasted pork belly. Vietnamese coriander works well with pork belly and fish cake Banh Mis but definitely not with the cold-cuts one. Anyway, thank you for putting a lot of effort into the video. I definitely enjoyed watching it!

[@davidsamson9596]

I love this, thank you so much for making Vietnamese Banh Mi. Just a quick note, the fish sauce you had in Vietnam is different than the fish sauce you use in your video. The fish sauce we use in Vietnam for Banh Mi is a mixture between fish sauce, lemon juice (or vinegar), sugar, water with chopped garlic , chopped chili. Try this portion, 50 ml fish sauce, 50 g sugar, 50 ml lemon juice/or vinegar, 200 ml of filtered water, Garlic and Chilli (chopped and and a handful). Hope you create more content.

[@hoang7850]

Like the other comments have mentioned, Vietnamese pate have minced pork and/or some breadcrumbs/soaked bread in it as well, we also cook the liver much more thoroughly. Also I’ve never seen anyone use nước mắm straight out of the bottle like that on a bánh mì lol, it is usually mixed with water, sugar, chillies and garlic, sometimes with lemon juice as well.

[@Teemochenko]

well, soy sauce is fine. The flavor is definitely not as good as the unique sauce mixture made from fish sauce but still good enough for a foreigner.

[@duy1nguyen]

Small tip. Cut the bread only about 2/3 watt through. Then hallow out some of the soft bread from the inside. This helps keep all the ingredients inside the banh mi and makes it easier to eat since you can add more ingredients without making the sandwich too tall.

[@elizabeth78269]

I’m Vietnamese and I have never had a bánh mì with nước mắm drizzled on it. Sacrilegious! It’s a French sandwich. We use a seasoning made by the Maggi company that resembles soy sauce but the taste is totally different. It’s sold in most European supermarkets. Also the pork we use for bánh mì is normally not pork belly with crunchy skin. You could put whatever you want in a bánh mì but the authentic pork for bánh mì is more like roasted pork shoulder or pork butt, what we call them in the US.

[@sirskratch8097]

I recently studied in australia, living in footscray for about 6 months and i lived off these! You can’t find them anywhere in the UK, i needed this❤️

[@nilabakery]

The way you describe each ingredient and its role in the dish is so informative. You're definitely a professional chef. 👌😃🤌🥰

[@ouradventerousdays]

Majority of our sauce local Vietnamese bakeries used soy sauce with spring onion, oil, n a bit of sugar (heat up the oil, add soy sauce n sugar and add spring onion, let it heat for less than a minute. The spring onion will soften). It tastes exceptionally good instead of soy sauce itself. Here in Sydney, Australia, we called it pork crackling roll (banh mi heo quay).

[@SangNguyen-se8pd]

Great videos as always. As a Vietnamese I just want to add some note: The paté is tricky to make, if you can't make it try to find it in local Asian store For the butter, we either use 'fake' butter/organic/vegie butter instead of butter cause it softer and easy to melt We normally add five spice powders and cooking wine to the pork belly, it totally worth it The Banh Mi is different than baguette and you don't need to cut it too deep like subway, around 3/4 is enough, otherwise it will split it half >95% banh mi you find in VN will use soy sauce instead, fish sauce is way too strong. I reckon a Viet or Thai brand sauce or even better Worcestershire sauce (my favorite), Kikkoman is fine but too salty Be careful with bird eyes chilies, my Kiwi friend can handle Jalapeño but he gave up bird eyes, me the other way around lul Just like summer rolls, you can be creative with Banh Mi, chicken, bacon, wieners :D, omelette, mussels ,etc. Have fun!!

[@doodahgurlie]

The pate used in Viet banh mi also typically contains ground pork in it along with pork fat. I would never use fake butter or margarine, that's just gross (and I make excellent chicken liver pate at home). :) Vietnamese people use the fake stuff because it's cheaper and easier to find there, but it's an inferior product in every way. But I agree with buying pate vs making it for most people. Baguette makes a major difference as the French one is heavy, dense, and tougher than the airy crunchy ones used for banh mi.

[@pulykamell]

So what herbs are used traditionally to top a bahn mi? Is rau ram the typical one, or do you use a mix? I know here in the US we usually use cilantro (aka coriander), but I have seen rau ram in Asian markets, and it never occurred to me that it's used on banh mis, as I've only had them here in the US. Do you also use regular cilantro out there? Any other herbs?

[@tinanguyen758]

Just coriander and shallot, no rau ram

[@doodahgurlie]

@@pulykamell Rau ram is used in many banh mi, but outside Vietnam, it's easier to just use cilantro. Keep in mind, it also depends on the type of banh mi which herb to use, but cilantro is an all around safe bet and is familiar and easily accessible to most people.

[@lluu0211]

Please do not add kikkoman or any soy sauce to your banh mi. Andy's recipe lists Maggi as the sauce, and I whole heartedly agree that is the only sauce you should be using for that extra umami punch. Banh mi vendors all over Saigon can all be seen with a bottle of Maggi, giving each sandwich a squirt of the good stuff right at the end 🎉

[@hyjuta8416]

You have successfully made your own favorite "Banh Mi". There are many versions of "Banh Mi" that can be found in Vietnam, but I still like "Banh Mi" the most with roasted pork with green vegetables and a unique mixed vegetable dish. I've seen a lot of videos re-cooking Vietnamese dishes, the most popular being pho, but you know, Pho is a very difficult dish to cook. So when I watched those videos, I just shook my head as they completely changed the way they cooked this dish. It's nice to have someone who can understand and perfect a Vietnamese dish like Banh Mi, well done Andy.

[@bhinoyj]

I heard that crunch ... I could taste that pate ... I could bite that crispy skin ..m I could feel the freshness of the pickle ... That's how passionate you were Andy. God bless

[@VitHoangf]

The fish sauce in the second one should be a sauce called Nước mắm pha, which consists of fish sauce, water, sugar, minced garlic, and chillies. Love your Bánh mì.❤❤

[@adamlinden5940]

Exactly, I go to viet restaurants and when you ask for fish sauce for your banh mi they give you the sauce you described. The sauce is also served with the egg rolls and I always get the bun thit nuong which comes with it as well.

[@trinhduc2482]

It's a great video Andy. Just some advices: - The Pate recipe is not only liver it has some more ingredients which contain ground pork, pork fat, and bread. - The pickle, when u salted the carrot, it will release the water and that water is bitter, so before putting it in vinegar you should rinse it with fresh water to remove the bitter and the water. The purpose they salt the pickle is simply to drain the inner water in the carrot and daikon to make it crunchy, savory taste is not included in the pickle. - it's not necessary to have a crispy pork too since it will quite dry, you can try with other recipe like pork with sauce so at the end u can use the sauce instead of maggie. Overall u did great and we proud of u

[@OldPhoneSi]

Hi Andy! First of all, REAL props to you for recreating this banh mi with such authenticity and zeal. It warms my heart to see you - a professional chef, KZbin celebrity. and my foodie idol - cherish this humble dish that's so near and dear to my culture and heart. As a fellow banh mi enthusiast and native Vietnamese, I do have an advice for the mayonnaise. My local banh mi cart merchant uses a homemade mayonnaise called "sốt dầu trứng" ("sauce" "oil" "egg" AKA egg and oil sauce), and I believe this goes for all other banh mi places. It's as basic as it gets - egg yolks, salt, oil, tad of acidity to get rid of the raw egg stench, and optionally, the smallest amount of sugar (I think this depends on the banh mi maker). The key to the taste of this sauce is the oil, which gives the mayo its signature flavor. I haven't been able to pin point what exact type of oil my local banh mi lady uses but strong contenders, in my opinion, are soybean oil and peanut oil. I love this sauce on all kinds of bread, not just banh mi. Another really famous dish made with this sauce is white bread lathered in the sauce, topped with pork floss and salted duck egg yolk. So good! So, day one of asking Andy to recreate Vietnamese mayonnaise.

Your video tutorial on making Vietnamese bánh mì is great, almost perfect in the Vietnamese style. However, with the roasted pork as the filling, that's just one of many ways to make it. There are many other delicious fillings. One more important point is the mayonnaise-it’s not the store-bought mayo, but rather the handmade version made from cooking oil and egg yolk, which is very distinctive. Only then will it have the true flavor of Vietnamese bánh mì.
