Method

Preparation of Pickled Vegetables

  1. 1

    Pickling the Vegetables

    In a bowl, combine the julienned carrots, daikon radish, white vinegar, sugar, and salt. Mix well until the sugar and salt dissolve. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to pickle.

Tofu Preparation

    Marinating Tofu

    Slice the tofu into thin slabs. In a bowl, mix soy sauce and sesame oil. Marinate the tofu slices in this mixture for at least 15 minutes.

    Cooking Tofu

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated tofu slices and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.

Assembly of Banh Mi

    Preparing the Baguette

    Slice the baguette in half lengthwise, leaving one side attached to create a hinge.

  2. 5

    Adding Spreads

    Spread mayonnaise on one side of the baguette and Sriracha on the other side.

  3. 6

    Layering the Ingredients

    Layer the cooked tofu slices, pickled vegetables, cucumber slices, fresh cilantro, and jalapeño slices inside the baguette.

    Close the baguette and press down gently. Cut in half if desired, and serve immediately.
