Bánh Mì or Banh Mi (pronounced as ban-mi) means bread, Bánh refers to food including bread and Mì refers to wheat, but it is known to be Vietnamese baguette. Vietnam was colonized by France during the mid-19th century, which is when they introduced baguette and became a staple food.
Now, Bánh Mì or Banh Mi is a popular food that refers to Vietnamese baguette sandwich typically filled with meats, pate, cucumber, coriander or cilantro, pickled carrots and radish, and sauces.
