Pickled carrots can be added to many Vietnamese dishes and sandwiches to give it a sweet and sour crunch. They are found in spring rolls, salads, and in many noodle dishes. I generally purchase my pickled carrots at a local sandwich shop when I place my sandwich order. Since I decided to make my favorite banh mi (vietnamese sandwich), I decided I would pickle my own carrots and daikon.
Here's the recipe.
Here's the recipe.
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb. carrots -sliced in thin rounds or thin match-like strips or shredded with cheese grater
- 1/2 lb. daikon radish – cut same as carrots.
- 3 cups warm water
- 3 Tablespoons distilled or rice vinegar
- 2-3 tablespoons sugar, depending on how sweet you want your pickles
- 2 tablespoons salt
Mix warm water, vinegar, sugar and salt until everything is dissolved.
Close the jar and let it pickle for a few days. The longer you have it pickled, the more sour it will be.

It is a great compliment to the Vietnamese Sandwich, Banh Mi.
Here's my favorite grilled pork sandwich. I'll be posting the recipe later on. It is definitely de-li-cious. What's your favorite sandwich?
