Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Vietnamese Spring Rolls
- Prep ingredients: Wash and slice vegetables into thin strips and keep herbs whole. Organize all fillings in separate bowls.
- Soak rice paper: Dip one rice paper wrapper in warm water for about 5-10 seconds until pliable but not soggy. Lift and let excess water drip off.
- Assemble spring rolls: Place soaked rice paper on a surface, add fillings in the center, fold sides over, and roll tightly from the bottom up.
- Store rolls: Place completed rolls on a damp cloth-lined plate to keep moist. Layer gently with another damp cloth if making multiple rolls.
- Prepare dipping sauce: Mix peanut butter with hoisin sauce or prepare nuoc cham with fish sauce, lime juice, sugar, minced garlic, and chili.
- Serve promptly: Serve Vietnamese spring rolls immediately with the dipping sauce for best texture and flavors.

Notes
Always prepare fillings first, avoid over-soaking rice paper, practice rolling technique, and keep rolls covered to maintain freshness.
