Gonna have to downvote you on that because most of the time, cilantro is in bánh mì. Nothing wrong with it, stop being a little baby and eat your greens.
We ain't being a baby. Coriander/Cilantro is a genetic thing. You either love it, or you hate it. We can't help not liking it.
I find it tastes like soap and overpowers everything it's put into. So if you want to know my experience, cut up a bar of soap and put it into your salad like it's some sort of weird cheese and try eating it. It's not a good experience.
Also... I live in Vietnam but I'm in Laos right now, cilantro or not, now you made me crave banh mi and I feel like I should go back home to get some 😅 Usually eat two a day, every day.
It closed surprisingly easily. The bread was crunchy on the outside, but gave way easily on the inside. There were many small ingredients rather than a few big ones, so the sandwich was quite formable.
That looks great - except I see cucumber in there. Is it just me that finds the taste of cucumber really intrusive? Even if I pick it out I can still taste it on the stuff it's touched.
