What it is

Vietnam's crisp fried spring rolls: glass-noodle, pork, crab and wood-ear mushroom filling in a shattering rice-paper (or wheat) shell. Ingredients: rice paper or wheat wrappers, ground pork, crab meat, glass noodles, wood-ear mushrooms, taro or jícama, carrot, shallots, fish sauce, pepper, nước chấm (fish sauce, lime, sugar, chile, garlic). Recipe: 1) Soak noodles and mushrooms; chop and mix with pork, crab and seasonings. 2) Wrap tight cylinders. 3) Rest the rolls so the wrappers dry slightly. 4) Fry twice — first to set, then to a deep golden crunch. Serve: wrapped in lettuce with herbs, dipped in nước chấm. Flavor: crackling, savory, sweet-sour from the dip. History: the South's answer to the North's nem rán — same roll, two names, one national obsession, essential at Tết feasts. See also: Gỏi Cuốn, Bún Chả.
