Description
Fresh spring rolls (goi cuon) showcase Vietnamese cuisine's emphasis on freshness, texture contrast, and balance. Rice paper wrappers are briefly soaked and filled with a precise combination of cooked and raw elements — herbs, rice vermicelli, protein, and vegetables. The technique is in the wrapping: tight enough to hold together, gentle enough not to tear the delicate rice paper. The dipping sauce (nuoc cham) is the fifth taste — sweet, sour, salty, spicy — that completes each bite.
