Vietnamese Baguettes

Vietnamese Baguettes, also known as Banh Mi, are a type of sandwich originating from Vietnam. The baguette is typically filled with a variety of savory ingredients such as meats, pickled vegetables, fresh herbs, and chili sauce. This combination creates a unique flavor profile that has become a popular food choice across the world. Traditionally, the bread used for these sandwiches is made with a combination of wheat and rice flours, giving it a light and crispy texture. The combination of flavors make Vietnamese Baguettes a delicious and satisfying snack or meal.

Ingredients (2 Persons)

  • 1 package active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water

Directions

  • Step 1
    In a small bowl, combine the yeast, 1/4 cup warm water, and sugar. Let sit for 5 minutes, until foamy.
  • Step 2
    In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture, 2 tablespoons oil, and 1 1/2 cups warm water. Stir until the dough comes together.
  • Step 3
    Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until the dough is smooth.
  • Step 4
    Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, until doubled in size.
  • Step 5
    Punch down the dough and divide into 4 pieces. Roll each piece into a log about 8 inches long. Place the logs on a greased baking sheet, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise for 30 minutes.
  • Step 6
    Preheat the oven to 375°F. Bake the baguettes for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown.
