Do you often eat bread? What type of bread do you eat? Tell us about the type of bread that's eaten in the country where you live. If you don't eat bread, what other carbohydrate staples do you eat (for example, rice or pasta)?

Yes, I love to eat Bánh Mì Bột Lọc in the afternoons, a type of bread. As you know about Bánh Mỳ, the most famous version one which is typically filled with a variety of ingredients such as grilled pork, pate, pickled vegetables, cilantro, cucumber, and a drizzle of soy or fish sauce. There are many variations, including vegetarian versions with tofu or egg. Bánh Mì Bột Lọc is also a common street food and is enjoyed at any time of the day. Often found in Central VietNam, especially in regions like Huế and Đà Nẵng. It is less common than the well-known Bánh Mì, but it is cherished for its distinct texture and the way it complements the flavourful fillings. The bread combined with Bánh Bột Lọc, a popular dumpling made from tapioca flour and filled with shrimp or pork, which are rich, savory fillings provides a delightful contrast in taste and texture, making it beloved for those enjoy more traditional and regional dishes.

 

In my country, rice remains the primary carbohydrate staple in Viet Nam, so I can enjoy dishes in various forms of rice like phở or bún, steamed as rice noodles. Rice and rice-based dishes are deeply ingrained in the daily meals of Vietnamese people.

Thank you so much for britishcouncil for providing such useful topics. I found that topics about food and anything related with food is always challenging for me. But I've learnt some vocabularies from this topics like whole wheat bread, slice of bread, peanut butter, etc. Looking forward to learn more here in this website.

I love the it's all about you part, sharing our experiences! 

The topic is nice. Food has always have been an interesting topic to discuss, especially that it is combined with some talk about how it seemed like in different cultures especially Bread. The conversation is very important because normally someone wouldn't have the skill of a 'casual spoken language' - the normal everyday talk, as much as a person would have to depict abstract topics rather than casual speaking I may say, I believe it is also important. It helps to broaden our English, I guess! So the most challenging part would be how to describe how you make bread or give a description of the process of making it or doing something, explaining it. Like how David gave an account on making his own bread. In spoken language to be honest it's quite difficult! although it sounds easy. But yeah! we all have an appetite for language...Interesting topics!

Hi Yas_125,
Thanks so much for your valuable feedback. I'm really pleased that you enjoyed the topic. We also love the 'It's all about you part' because we enjoy hearing about  diverse experiences from our learners around the world.
I agree that 'everyday English' is really important, and that's what we hope to share in the Learning hub.
Come back soon for some new topics :-)
Best wishes,
Jo
