Notes
This recipe makes 12 Summer Rolls, 24 halves. That means it's enough for using as an appetizer for entertaining or using for dinner. If you cannot find Rice Paper sheets in your store, you can order them quickly on Amazon here: Square Rice Paper sheets or Round Rice Paper SheetsTIP: Rice paper dries out quickly, so when making these, I place them between cold wet paper towels until ready to serve. You can do this a day in advance if stored in moist towels in an airtight container, but I would not make more than a day in advance.
