The Ultimate Vegan Sandwich 

you're my fav. / love the work. Bro: Do yourself a fav and get to New Saigon Deli in Denver... get the No. 1 vegan (but if you can, get a double portion of the 'real' garlic aoli.) will change your life

soap lettuce 😂 your killing me. i love that you use the pre marinated tofu. i love it

I received my Stur package yesterday. I only tried the Fruit Punch. It tastes like artificial sweetener that's too sweet. I gave up soda over two months ago, and I bought this as an alternative to buying flavored SmartWater, which is expensive if you can find it. Stur contains stevia, which I didn't want. I thought these were unsweetened flavors. I guess I should have paid more attention.

Oh I have never tried that!! I need too!! Thank you

Ooooh that sounds good

This is really not the case, lol. Many Vietnamese are Buddhist, but there's a difference between the lifestyles of Buddhist monks (who have to follow the ascetic traditions of not just vegan diet, but also no "seggs" or marriage, no possessions, etc.) and a Buddhist layperson, who still believe in Buddhism but don't have to follow those rules. So in traditional Vietnamese food (pho, chao, bahn cuon, bahn bo hue, bo luc lac, etc) there's actually a lot of meat and seafood, and a whole cooked pig is a very common thing in special occasions (weddings, tet). But you can "veganize" Vietnamese food like most other cuisines by using the same flavors but with tofu or gluten. Sometimes you can get vegan food at Vietnamese Buddhist temples (I honestly don't know if they sell it, we got it as payment for performing for their temple), but it is plain and not very flavorful, because they need to abstain from harsh flavors (onion and garlic is also forbidden in Buddhist asceticism). But a lot of Viet people don't regularly cook vegan food, so if you say you eat "chay" a common dish they will cook you is rice or vermicelli, soy sauce, cucumber and rau ram if you're lucky lol. Tofu is traditionally not as common in Viet food as in other cuisines like Chinese or Japanese (in Chinese cuisine especially tofu is common but not as a meat "substitute," they traditionally cook tofu WITH meat, like mapo tofu or duo jiao yu (fish and tofu)).

haha thanks for always making awesome stuff!!! And yeah im a little too nuts with Stur!! its really good! thank you!!!

I really am mad at myself for not keeping it in my pantry!! I need to get it!! Thank you!!!

ME tooooo!!

My top 5 favorite sandwiches

Ohhh thats a great idea!! I'll get on the Cuban!!!

OMG! You need to try Banh Mi!!! The combination of flavors is just perfect!

I need to get Maggi!! Im ashamed I dont have it in my pantry!

@@SauceStache I add it to the mushroom pate, too.

Soooo Good!!! I get into BANH MI ruts where I eat them for like a week straight hahaha

Thank you too much!!!

Wow! thank you!! I appreciate that!

That's great! I bet he will enjoy it!! too good not too!! and thank you

Thats awesome!! a good tofu BANH MI can be really good!

Nice I will remember that!!!

You are so welcome! You will love the sandwich and Stur!!!

Thank you so much!!! Enjoy!! I need to start working on one hahaha Ive had a few ideas but haven't got it to pen yet!

Waiting in anticipation@@SauceStache

ahhh what a bummer!! You could totally use some green onion, maybe even parsley here and it'll be good!!

Same here. But i still like a little bit of it lol

Same! And I didn’t know about that genetic difference until I was 50. 😂 I just thought my taste buds were broken. 🤷‍♀️

☹️ I'm sorry. Does that mean coriander seed tastes funny too? So sorry for the soap gene😞

Mark's *_"soap lettuce"_* is my new favourite term for that devils weed! 🤢🤣

Thank you sooo much!!!

@@SauceStache have you tried any of the eastern European vegetarian pate? Both Eastern European and Vietnamese grocers carry them.

Yeah! I've done a few sausages, and Ive actually made the cha Lua chay which is one of the meats that would get used traditionally in a veggie BANH MI!!

Definitely needs the Maggi Seasoning Sauce aka MSG!!! We also used to have ours from the Vietnamese bakery with sliced spring onion and fresh HOT red chilli… YUM! This looks amazing though. But seriously, if you haven’t used the Maggi Seasoning Sauce, it’s dangerous but so good.

Oh you definitely should!! they are soooo good!

Thank you!!! I need to pick up some Maggi seasoning!!!!

It really is an incredible sandwich!!

Thank you sooo much!!! the Pate was outa this world, im still using it hahah

Sounds good!! I havnt tackled seafood in a while!

My wife and I will be so excited! I've attempted most of your recipes and they all turn out amazing. Appreciate you and all that you do for the community! @@SauceStache

Thank you 😋

Thank you!!

I wouldn't do longer than 4 days. But you can freeze it in ice cube trays for individual uses or jar it!

@@SauceStache Thanks for the advice!

Do it!!! You can't beat it when they are fresh!!

Yeah thats also a great place for a lot of options!!!!

So good!!

GOOOOD Morning Christopher!!! How's it going?!! You've gotta try a BANH MI!! the combination of flavors is outa this world! You can stick any protein in there and it'll be good!

I bet its really good!! I love satay tofu!!

YES!!!! MY MAAAAAAAANNN!!!!

Also those picked carrots (no daikon for me) are the best. Try them on veggie hot dogs! You will find a jar in my fridge at all times. Same for everyone in my family.

Thats where I got mine from!! iFresh! I almost got the 5 spice...I love that stuff

@SauceStache love that place, too. I used the five spice recently in my tacos.

There are so many great spots! Market on south/Main house Market -Great sandwiches, ice cream, kombucha and coffee! Winter Park Biscuit Co. - Amazing ChickN and Biscuits Dharma Southern Chick'n/Valhalla Bakery -Chicken Sandwich/Vegan Bakery Donuts Winter Park Collective - has a great burger spot and vegan pizzas Marios pizza - Lots of vegan pizza and Italian options V's Vegan Diner - Vegan Diner food and bakery! And for Bahn Mi I personally Like Paris Bahn Mi, their vegetarian is vegan but you have to ask for no mayo.. I always order them to go and I bring it home and add my own. Planties Burgers Greenery Creamery - awesome ice cream There are so many great places im probably forgetting!

hahahah thats amazing!!

ME TTOO!!

Yeah Im outa baguettes now and I just posted this and want one for lunch hahaha

ahhh I wonder, I think I know what that is and this is a little different... this is just super firm tofu pressed extra firm. then marinated

Soooo good right!!

Thanks for the catch!! just added the link and threw a card at the end of the video for it! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-o5WHfwuO3II.htmlsi=4ESFbmI1QeMvZIfp

ahhh I bet thats good!!!

ahhh wild that sounds good!!! Need to try it

Oh wow that sounds amazing

You know thats the one thing NOT in my pantry!!! I need to pick some up

@@SauceStacheYou should. Many people will say it's as essential to classic Bahn Mi as the pickled daikon and carrot.

Thank you too much!!!

hahahah!! YES!

wait what??? Can you explain more please? It's simply a Shopify page so nothing like that should have happened.

@@SauceStache I went to your website. Tried to order the sauce and everything froze. I couldn't do anything, but I was able to exit everything. I tried again and once again everything froze before I could order, but this time I couldn't just quit out and I hard to hard reboot. I tried a third time and I got to the point where I could click buy, but then everything froze again and before I could reboot my phone just shut off. It didn't charge me tho, so that's ok. My phone was able to turn back on but it's not a good sign for the order page. I have a really good phone too mind you.

I really want that sauce... ☹️

It's soooo good!! not yet! You can pick it up at Notsteaksauce.com for now! But if you get a chance and you are around a sprouts or Whole Foods make sure you ask the manager to stock it!

@@SauceStache will do thank u sm !

Thank you!!

oh wow ive never heard that!! Even in our little Vietnam area of town!! I'll ask around so I can hear what it sounds like and next time say it better!! Thank you for this and sorry for mispronouncing it!!

@@SauceStache don't feel bad! I literally had Lisa (The Viet Vegan) coach me on how to say it properly and I still say it wrong lol

Yeah, sweet ish.. It doesn't feel overly sweet. I know what you are talking about with the "off" taste. This has a more natural taste over some other powdered water flavors ive tried

seitan- SAY-TAN not SAY-TAHN

hahahaha I need 2 of me! or 10

hahaha wild! So im not going to spend my time proving to you I buy plant based products. Please just move on to another creator to hassle. BTW almost all Baguettes are just flour, water, salt and yeast ;) it's one of the breads you can almost be certain is going to be plant based. Even with being rude I still gave you a thumbs up, it's not hard to be kind.

@@SauceStache you have a problem with facts so you made a personal attack while simultaneously painting yourself as "kind". i just want you to ensure you prove your claims next time, although I did expect a pathetic excuse from you. unsubbed.
