hello everyone!

Today, during my trip to Nha Trang, Vietnam...

The amazing world of taste I experienced

Right on the 'Banh Mi sandwich'

I’d like to talk about that~~

I like foods with a strong spice smell

Especially cilantro or foods with unique aromas

Actually, it wasn't easy to enjoy.

Then, by chance, I found a banh mi seller on the street

I found a store

It turns out it's famous in Nha Trang

It was a great restaurant.

The moment I mustered the courage to take a bite of the cilantro-infused banbi,

Crispy baguette, tender meat, crunchy vegetables,

And… cilantro? Surprisingly, all these ingredients

It created a perfect harmony and captivated my taste buds.

Since that day, I set out every morning in search of banh mi.

By the end of the trip, even the scent of coriander

It was enough to make me miss it... haha

Even after returning to Korea, I kept thinking about that taste.

So I made a decision.

Let's make Banh Mi at home!

Now, here is my own banh mi recipe.

Let me introduce it to you!

First of all, the key to banh mi is the crispy baguette.

Baguettes that became established in Vietnam due to the influence of French colonial rule

This is said to be the beginning of anti-Americanism.

You can buy a freshly baked baguette from a neighborhood bakery,

You can order from Market Kurly like me... haha

If you bake it in the oven for about 5 minutes, it becomes even crispier.

You can enjoy delicious baguettes~~

Strangely enough, in the first pho I tried, it was like that

The cilantro had a distinct aroma, but when I ate the banh mi, I didn't even realize it was in it.

Thanks to that delicious experience, now even with pho...

I've become a cilantro enthusiast who puts cilantro in their food... haha

Cilantro may be unfamiliar at first, but

It probably is. Just like I was!
