In Vietnamese , the term banh ( Hanoi: [?a?ŋ???] or Saigon: [?an??] , Ch? Nom : ?) translates loosely as "cake" or "bread", but refers to a wide variety of prepared foods that can easily be eaten by hands or chopsticks . [1] With the addition of qualifying adjectives, banh refers to a wide variety of sweet or savory, distinct cakes, buns, pastries, sandwiches, and other food items, which may be cooked by steaming, baking, frying, deep-frying, or boiling. Foods made from wheat flour or rice flour are generally called banh , but the term may also refer to certain varieties of noodle and fish cake dishes, such as banh canh and banh h?i .

Each variety of banh is designated by a descriptive word or phrase that follows the word banh , such as banh bo ( lit. ' cow cake ' ) or banh chu?i ( lit. ' banana cake ' ). Banh that are wrapped in leaves before steaming are called banh la ( lit. ' leaf cakes ' ).
