                                While many Vietnamese dishes are naturally gluten-free, the answer for *bánh canh* is more nuanced. This thick, chewy noodle, a popular staple in Vietnamese cuisine, is typically made from a mix of tapioca flour and rice flour, making the base inherently gluten-free. However, the key lies in the preparation and potential additives, which can introduce gluten and cause issues for those with sensitivities.
