Description
For my birthday this year, I ordered this Vegan Banh Mi Sandwich from a local beachfront brewpub. It was so good I decided to recreate it myself!

Instructions
Pickled Veggies
- Peel carrots and daikon
- Carefully shred or julienne about 1 cup each of the carrot and daikon
- Place veggies in a glass bowl and add vinegar and water.
- Stir occasionally and set aside.
- Drain before using.
Tofu Remoulade
- Place all of the sauce ingredients into a blender
- Adjust Sriracha to your own taste preference
- Blend until smooth, scraping down sides as necessary
Mushrooms
- Slice onion and gently saute in 1-2 Tbs water until softened
- Clean the mushrooms and remove the stems.
- Slice the Portobellos thinly and add to pan
- Gently saute until softened and they begin to release their own liquid
- Add marinade and stir well
- Simmer until most of the liquid has cooked off and evaporated
