Num pang

In Cambodian cuisine, num pang is a short baguette with thin, crisp crust and soft, airy texture. It is often split lengthwise and filled with savory ingredients like a submarine sandwich and served as a meal, called num pang sach. It is similar to Laos's khao jee pâté and Vietnam's bánh mì.

History
Baguettes were adopted into Cambodian cuisine from the French when Cambodia was a protectorate in French Indochina. More recently, num pang has spread outside of Cambodia with eateries specializing in num pang opened in cities, such as New York, Washington, Boston, and Melbourne. ==Variations==
