MAKING THE ROLLS!

HOW TO

1. Prep all the ingredients, by chopping, slicing, grating, etc. and set aside.

2. Place noodles in a heat-proof bowl and cover with boiling water. Let the noodles sit, submerged per the package instructions. (Typically bout 2 minutes.) Drain the noodles well and toss with the oil and pinch of salt. Set aside.

3. Fill a shallow pan or dish (a 9′′ round pie plate works!) with an inch of water that is at room temperature.

4. Place a clean cutting board next to the dish. Have your prepared fillings within reach.

5. Place one rice paper in the room temperature water and let it rest for approximately 15 seconds. You're looking for a flexible wrapper that has softened. It will continue to soften once you remove it from the water. Make sure to drain all the excess water from the wrapper. Carefully lay the wrapper flat on the cutting board.

6. Now pick which ingredients you wish to use as filling. Lay a bit of each filling across the center of the wrap, leaving 1" from the edge.

7. Fold one half of the wrapper (closest to you) over the filling and tuck under the filling very gently while compacting the filling.

8. Fold-in the two sides (right and left) and continue rolling the wrap away from you to create an enclosed roll.

9. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

10. If you have small rolls, you can serve them whole. For bigger rolls, cut in half. Best to eat right away. If storing, cover with damp paper-towel in a container so the rolls don't dry out. Will keep fresh for 1-2 days.
