Notes

Keep leftover spring rolls fresh for 1-2 days by storing them in an airtight container with a damp paper towel to prevent the wrappers from drying out or becoming sticky.
These 'no-fry' spring rolls are truly best enjoyed fresh; reheating is not recommended as it will compromise their delightful crispness and the tender rice paper texture.
Serve your vibrant spring rolls immediately with a side of your favorite peanut dipping sauce or a light nuoc cham for an explosion of flavor.
When softening the rice paper wrappers, a quick 5-10 second dip in warm water is all you need; oversoaking makes them too flimsy and challenging to roll beautifully.
