1. Things to know about Vietnamese summer rolls
The highlight of Vietnamese summer rolls – or fresh spring rolls – is their contrast of flavors and textures between the leaves and the noodles, and the freshness brought about by a large amount of vegetables and herbs.
As a popular snack in Southern Vietnam, these little treats have made their way to the world and gained the recognition of many global diners. In fact, in 2017, Vietnamese summer rolls were featured on the list of the world’s best foods, compiled through a poll on Facebook organized by CNN.
2. The popular ingredients of Vietnamese summer rolls
The perk of having a wide array of ingredients means that there are endless ways to customize Vietnamese summer rolls. Still, the most popular version calls for shrimp, pork, rice noodles, lettuce, and aromatic herbs, with rice paper wrappers.
As the dish’s reputation grows, people have been adding their own spins on its presentations and ingredients. A prime example would be the artfully presented rolls that have taken social media by storm. Taking advantage of the see-through nature of Vietnamese summer roll wrappers, some creative minds have created fruit rolls using a kaleidoscope of fruits with contrasting or complementing colors.
3. How do Vietnamese people make summer rolls?
Vietnamese fresh summer rolls consist of shrimp marinated with salt, sugar, and rice liquor; boiled pork belly; lettuce; and an assortment of herbs.
What comes first on the rice paper is lettuce, then herbs, noodles, pork, and shrimp. To make the rolls look more presentable, arrange the shrimp and pork so that they are visible through the rice paper. The mix is then rolled up and dipped into a sweet, sour, and savory source.
Vietnamese summer rolls should not be confused with spring rolls, as the latter are fried and have different fillings.
