Vietnamese Summer Rolls

Cultural Context

Originating from Vietnam, summer rolls, or 'gỏi cuốn', are a beloved street food that embodies freshness and balance. Traditionally filled with shrimp, herbs, and vermicelli, they are often served with a rich peanut sauce. Today, these rolls have gained popularity worldwide, with many variations incorporating different proteins and vegetables.
