(I was going to write Asian grocery stores, but considering you live in Hong Kong, I realized that would be redundant since I assume the majority of the grocery stores around you should be Asian!) They are amazingly gluey, those little things but those trays really help when you're making your own rolls in a restaurant.

That would take out all the guess work. They are amazing, those little rice disks. I was astounded at how they stuck closed like cling film after I rolled them.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04435647248027246458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-591263314068127571.post-12462783707322451282010-08-27T10:02:38.677+08:002010-08-27T10:02:38.677+08:00For the uncoordinated (which I am), the rice paper...For the uncoordinated (which I am), the rice paper can be challenging. I've thought about misting each one with water because I seem to either not dip it long enough so it's a little hard or dip it too long and it becomes mushy. Vietnamese restaurants sometimes have a neat stacking device, like individual flat mesh trays, which keeps the rice papers damp and separated. I have no idea what they're called but I'd like to get one since Vietnamese spring rolls are so good in the summer.PharmaFoodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06211044707665089598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-591263314068127571.post-41800131541846144822010-08-25T22:20:20.647+08:002010-08-25T22:20:20.647+08:00I have been dying to try something Vietnamese, but...I have been dying to try something Vietnamese, but I've been a little terrified - but these seem simple and easy..
