Make Lucky Peachs Shrimp Summer Rolls At Home
- 3 ounces bean thread/cellophane/rice vermicelli noodles
- 1 cup shredded napa cabbage
- 1/2 cup shredded carrot
- 1/2 cup peeled, seeded and shredded (or julienned) cucumber
- 1/4 cup picked mint leaves
- 1/4 cup picked and torn basil leaves
- 1/4 cup picked cilantro sprigs
- 1/4 cup chopped scallions
- kosher salt
- 1-2 teaspoons rice vinegar
- 12 rice paper wrappers
- 18 cooked medium shrimp, peeled and halved lengthwise
- Hoisin sauce and fish sauce for serving
- Soak the noodles in hot water to cover in a heatproof bowl until theyre softened, about 15 minutes.
- Drain and transfer to a medium bowl.
- Add the cabbage, carrot, cucumber, mint, basil, cilantro, and scallions to the noodles and toss together.
- Season lightly with salt and the vinegar.
- Set the noodle salad aside.
- Fill a large bowl or pie plate with warm water.
- Slide a rice paper wrapper into the water and press with your fingertips to submerge it.
- Lift the wrapper out with both hands, flip it, and place it back into the water.
- Continue flipping and soaking until the wrapper is soft and pliable, about 30 seconds, then lay it flat on a kitchen towel or several layers of paper towels.
- Working with one at a time, lay a rice paper wrapper on your work surface.
- Arrange 3 shrimp halves in a row near one edge of the wrapper.
- Top with about 1/2 cup (a three-finger pinch) of the noodle salad, then roll the nearest edge of the wrapper over the filling.
- Fold in the sides of the wrapper and continue to roll up to seal.
- Transfer, shrimp-side up, to a platter.
- Repeat with the remaining wrappers, shrimp, and noodle salad until you have 12 rolls.
- Chill, draped with a damp paper towel, for up to 1 hour.
- Halve the rolls crosswise at an angle; serve with fish sauce and hoisin sauces for dipping.
