banh mi bread

A recipe for crusty yet soft, homemade Vietnamese banh mi baguettes, used for banh mi sandwiches.

Homemade Banh Mi Baguette

270 ml warm water

sugar

g active dry yeast

500 g bread flour (or all-purpose)

g sea salt

g avocado oil (or any light vegetable oil)

Measure out the warm water into a large measuring cup.

Stir in the sugar and yeast. Give it a mix to activate the yeast.

Add the flour, salt, oil, and egg into a stand mixer bowl fitted with a dough hook.

Once the yeast is bubbly, pour it into the flour mixture.

Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic, at least 10 minutes on a stand mixer at speed 3 or 4 (depending on your mixer&#039;s horsepower).

The dough is ready when you can stretch a little bit of the dough between your fingers and it creates a thin &quot;windowpane.&quot;

Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl and cover.

Let it rest in a warm location, until doubled in size.

Make the dough:

Once risen, divide the dough into 6 equal triangular portions.

Slap the dough to release any air bubbles and shape into a triangle.

Start from the "pointy" end of the triangle and roll and pinch the sides, while working your way down.

Seal the ends and place onto a perforated baguette pan. (I placed 2 pieces of dough on each &quot;well&quot;).

Repeat with the remainder.

Cover lightly with a damp cloth and leave to rise in a warm location, until puffy and almost doubled in size.

Shape the dough:

Towards the end of the proofing time, preheat oven to 425°F/218°C.

Adjust the oven rack to the 3rd from the bottom.

Carefully add a large roasting pan filled with hot boiling water to the bottom rack of the oven.

Preparing the oven:

Spray the baguettes with water using a clean kitchen spray bottle.

Make a swift yet controlled slash at a 45° angle on each baguette with a sharp knife or baking lame.

Spray the tops of the baguettes with water again.

Place the baguettes into the oven and quickly spray the baguettes with water (to create steam) before shutting the oven door.

Bake for a total of 22 minutes. Every 2 minutes, open the oven door and spray the baguettes with water, until 6 minutes have elapsed (do this 3 times, every 2 minutes).

When there is 10 minutes left in the baking time, carefully remove the roasting pan with hot water and let the baguettes continue to bake.

Cool the baguettes slightly before slicing.

If you want light and airy Vietnamese Baguettes at home, you've come to the right place! The crust is thin, crackly and very crisp while the interior is light and fluffy like a cloud. This is the bread to make Banh Mi sandwiches; the iconic Vietnamese street food (or as I knew them in the 90's, Vietnamese Subs).

I wanted to make this banh mi bread at home ever since I was introduced to it by a Vietnamese friend during a high school wresting meet. But I could never make it happen! This was back before google had much to say about it. One person with insider restaurant knowledge told me there was rice flour in there. Another said they use low-gluten flour. Now, I think they were making things up!

So what kind of flour to use in Vietnamese Baguette? Bread flour! 

Only in the last couple years, I've been working more with bread flour and made a roll that reminded me of Banh Mi....but not quite. After that, I've been getting closer and closer until finally this Vietnamese Baguette recipe is ready to share!  I truly hope you make this special baguette recipe at home. You will LOVE it!

Should I share my favourite sandwich filling for this bread? Let me know if you're interested and I'll do a video!

By the way, if you were wondering, I will give a full update on my allergy situation (including the wheat allergy symptoms) very soon! Thanks so much for the supportive comments. I really appreciated them!

----INGREDIENTS-----
310ml warm water (105-110°F)
1 tsp sugar
510g bread flour (13% gluten, high gluten variations of all-purpose flour are OKAY too but try to get the bread flour if you can because I did find a noticeable difference. Though both versions were very good)
1 tsp salt
