    Banh mi Vietnamese baguettes

    "These always remind me of a wonderful food stylist friend who became addicted to banh mi when she was pregnant and, although we usually ate whatever food we were photographing in the studio, would send her assistant out to get them every day. They make a great barbecue dinner. "
