Bread ranked first in TasteAtlas.
On March 14, the Information Center of the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism said that the culinary website TasteAtlas assessed that banh mi (pronounced "bun mee") is a very popular Vietnamese dish with the same core ingredient - baguette, introduced by the French.
This page describes the Vietnamese sandwich as having a crispy crust with meat, sprinkled with spices, combined with fresh herbs such as cilantro, chili and pickles reflecting the Vietnamese taste for herbs and light flavors.
Nowadays, the stuffings stuffed into sandwiches are more and more diverse, including chicken, pork, beef, seafood, cold cuts or pate, sausage. But the important thing is not to put too much stuffing in the sandwich. The culinary website evaluates that, thanks to the spices and the very unique and different types of stuffing, Vietnamese sandwiches are especially popular with foreign tourists. Thanks to that, Vietnamese sandwiches have long crossed the border in the country and appeared in many stores around the world .
