Sous Vide Chicken Banh Mi
Emily Farris and Jeff Akin are the co-founders of Feed Me Creative, a former culinary creative agency in Kansas City, MO.
The banh mi, a vietnamese sandwich usually made with pork, is one of our favorite dishes to create with the Anova Sous Vide. It's delicious, and presents so beautifully - you'll want it for more than just lunch.
