Canned Sardine Banh Mi
"Photographs: Marvin Gapultos Note: You can find canned sardines in tomato sauce at Asian markets. Ligo brand is a good choice and comes in spicy and mild versions. Baguettes made in Vietnamese bakeries are made with rice flour and are crispier than regular french baguettes. If you don't have a Vietnamese bakery nearby, a regular French baguette roll can be used. About the author: Marvin Gapultos is the author of the Filipino food blog, Burnt Lumpia.
