    Have a recipe you’d recommend? I’ve never been able to recreate the banh mi baguettes I get at the good Vietnamese places nearby.

      Yes, sorry for the late reply. This recipe is pretty good https://tastylittledumpling.com/vietnamese-baguette-recipe/

      They lightly oil the bowl, but (Vietnamese) Baguette is noticeably greasy, so when I do it I add two tablespoons oil to the dry ingredients, then after mixing the rest, place in an oiled bowl.

      You can see from the ingredients and instructions that they are going for a fast, hot ferment. Butt ton of yeast and sugar, oven light on. Normally this makes me cringe, I like long, cold natural ferments, for Banh Mi it works though.
