The Baguette Revolution: Banh Mi, Num Pang, and a Thai Sandwich Challenge

Рет қаралды 79,763

Күн бұрын

A new Cambodian Num Pang counter in Bangkok sparked an idea to compare Southeast Asia's three iconic sandwiches- the Num Pang, the Lao Khao Jee Pate, and of course, the Banh Mi. But a surprise rainstorm and some unexpected issues with filming caused the idea to change and expand in scope- covering the European history of baguettes, rebellions across the old French colonial empire, the story of sandwiches, and finally, an exploration of what might happen if the best Thai chefs made their own attempts at creating a Thai baguette masterpiece.

It's cool to see you mention all the places baguettes ended up. Here in Louisiana we have Baguettes as well that get used in Po Boys and other various sandwiches. We even have a food here called a pistolette which is basically if you took raw baguette dough, stuffed it with cheese and crawfish, and then deep fried it. Fun side note: Baguette is French for 'wand', and if you're ever at a Chinese restaurant in France you will be asked if you want 'baguettes' on the side- they aren't asking about a side of bread, but chopsticks, or 'wands'.

Hi Adam, great documentary about the banh mi. I'm Vietnamese, born and raised with banh mi. To me, banh mi has been always there and obviously makes sense, I never thought it has a deep history when we go down the rabbit. I must add that the Chinese Bao or Bao, in a sense, is the East equivalent of the baguette in the West. Bao is made of rice flour because East grows tons of it; Bao are for the people eat on the go; Bao can accommodate with any kinds of fillings (beef, pork, veggie, etc. etc) depending on the availability of local ingredients. Could you imagine a world in which "the colonization went the otherway which the East colonized the West." I would betcha that we would have Bao mixed into Western Cuisine and we would have had Bao with cheese, and traditional Western fillings!

Awesome work, once again. The first half or so of this story seemed almost like James Burke"s "Connections" television show. Coming up with the thai sandwich angle was genius.

@nathalia7104 17 күн бұрын

It's hard to find a good Sandwich place in Thailand. I think the main reason is because Thais just don't eat much hard bread. They like soft bread, so those Japanese or Korean style sandwiches are more preferred. But nothing will replace their rice. Most of Thai food and seasonings are made to eat with rice because of the strong taste. So, thais haven't grasped the concept of making sandwiches yet. But I hope , as a sandwiches lover, sandwiches will grow more popularity in the future. I even dreamed of opening a grilled sandwich restaurant in Thailand 😅

If you want to use a US definition of a "sandwich", you can include the iconic Malay Ramly burger. Something that tends to irritate people is when I tell them that croissants are not French but, like the baguette, Austrian. There are several stories about how they got to France and even originated in the first place.

The satay etc. sandwiches as local inventions presented at the table of a foreign tourist remind me of another kind of fusion food, which is combining local dishes in non-local ways. It can be argued that Hungarian frybread ("lángos") is a national food of Hungary. Lángos is usually had by locals with only a slight topping: garlic juice, sour cream, shredded cheese at best. Now, several Budapest sellers have invented combinations for the tourists, where they use the frybread for an edible plate, basically, to serve other iconic Hungarian dishes such as stuffed cabbage on. These tend to be really heavy for one person. Meanwhile, locals would rather have that stuffed cabbage on a plate, at home or a friend's home, made at home.

In north-eastern part of Thailand along mekong river and big city of those region, such as Sakonnakorn, Ubon Ratchathanee, Udonthani and Khon Kaen, these cities used to be US army bases during the Vietnam war. They have "Breakfast shops" which serves bite sized baguette filled with Vietnamese sausages, lap chang(Chinese sausages) and minced pork. Along with the so-called "kway chap yuan" (Vietnamese noodle) which is similar to Bahn Chan. And Eggs top with Chinese and Vietnamese sausages on a hot tiny pan (similar to American breakfast). This region had a lot of Vietnamese migrants which I think they carry their food with them and adapted to Thai ingredients and mixtures of American culture through the G.I. times. I personally think these kinds of "Breakfast shops" defined Thai's Sandwich and north-eastern breakfast during the cold war which is different from the central part of Thailand where a lot of new dishes emerged around that period too.
