I love Bánh Mì, Vietnamese sandwiches, and I love hot links, so bringing these amazing ingredients together is a match made in heaven for me. If you’re looking for the perfect 4th of July recipe and/or trying to figure out what to do with the leftovers, you gotta check this out!
Hot Links are spicy and flavor-packed so it’s the perfect protein to compliment the fresh veggies and flavors of a Bánh Mì. In my opinion, you literally can make Vietnamese sandwiches with whatever proteins you like as long as you have some key components like the French baguette, pickled, and fresh veggies. If you don’t have all the ingredients, use what you have and make it work!
I received a lot of questions on how to make Pickled Carrots and Daikon so the recipe I used is posted below. Simply julienne the veggies, then bring the liquid to a quick boil and whisk until the sugar dissolves. Turn off the heat. Add carrots and daikon to a pickling jar. Pour liquid into a jar and refrigerate overnight. Adjust sugar depending on how sweet and/or tangy you like it.
