Let’s make a Banh Mi 🥪

its sammich time 🙂

lets learn about the meats:

- headcheese - made of the snouts, lips and ham of pork

- pate - made of pork liver

- cha lua - a ham / sausage roll that is made of pork, sometimes they add whole pieces of black peppers as well

for some, these might not be the usual trimmings you eat from pork but i will say give it a try because combined together it tastes great.

servings: 4

4 french bread, toasted and sliced down the middle

1/2 lb pork liver pate

1. Spread some kewpie mayo on the bottom half of the bread. Spread some pork liver pate on the top half of the bread.
