Nice idea on the egg and the flower! Also spring rolls are regional, the Central Vietnam version uses thinly sliced boiled pork belly, lettuce, carrots, cucumber, pineapple, pickled shrimps, and the rolls are dipped in fish sauce. The northern version has thinly sliced layers of stuffing including egg, boiled pork, veggies and similar herbs. I think the southern version dips the rolls in peanut sauce similar to the one you make, but the other regions dip them in sour sweet fish sauce!

Next time u try rolling, place it under a flat cutboard instead. It will not break your rolls 'cause these rice paper are wet. A lot quicker!

Beautiful recipe. Will definitely try.

Every time I watch international cooking videos, I’m reminded and want to cry at how pale and flavorless our eggs are in the U.S.

When I do them on a regular plate or cutting board, they aren't as sticky like you said. Putting food in a cotton towel...that's kinda icky for me.
But I am loving the your colors of those rolls...BEAUTIFUL!

Tip: I use a plastic chopping board when i make rice paper rolls - it doesn't stick

This is not food, this is art. Beautiful presentation, you put some 5 star restaurants to shame. Wow.

[inodelacruz]

If I make these, I’ll just stare at them and starve!! 🤣

Few tips :
1/ use a wet towel
2/ when wrapping, start at the bottom (nearest to you), roll up to the middle, then do the sides, and finish rolling

^^ great video

Wow I'm Vietnamese and this makes me want to learn to do cold rolls all over again!!! Absolutely beautiful and inspiring. Thanks for sharing ⭐⭐

Try rolling these on the silicone baking sheets. I just had a spring rolling party this past weekend and the silicone sheets worked perfectly! No sticking and peeling, and more time for eating! :D

I’m Vietnamese and I have never seen anyone use a tea towel before. I’ve been using an plate my whole life and it has never broke. Maybe it’s the brand of rice paper you use because there are different types. There ones for eating raw, ones that uses hot water, and ones that use cold water. In Vietnam sometimes we don’t even dip it in water and use the remaining water from our freshly wash vegetable as there also different thickness in rice paper rolls. Love the creatively in your video though 😋🌸.

TIP: use a damp tea towel instead of a dry one.
