summer roll
Vietnamese rice wrap
A summer roll is a Vietnamese appetizer consisting of rice paper wrapped around fresh vegetables, herbs, and often shrimp or pork, served cold with dipping sauce.
Unlike spring rolls, summer rolls are not fried—the translucent wrapper stays soft and chewy.
We ordered summer rolls as a light starter.
