Vietnamese Pickled Vegetables

 

1. The pickles are traditionally served on Vietnamese banh mi sandwiches. They’re a little like bread and butter pickles, though crispier, not as sweet, and with a slight radish taste from the daikon.
2. These pickles would be great with anything that would typically be served with coleslaw or sauerkraut, like hot dogs, or barbecued pork
3. They would also be great with salad or wrapped into a spring roll.
4. There is definitely a health benefit to eating these kinds of vegetables, so they can even be enjoyed just by themselves.
