Frequently Asked Questions About Vietnamese spring roll
What is in a Vietnamese spring roll?
A Vietnamese spring roll usually wraps rice vermicelli, lettuce, fresh herbs and shrimp in softened rice paper. Fillings vary by recipe and may include pork, chicken, tofu or extra vegetables; the roll is commonly served fresh rather than fried.
Are Vietnamese spring rolls fried?
No, Vietnamese spring rolls are usually served fresh and unfried, with ingredients visible through their soft rice-paper wrappers. Fried rolls are a different preparation, typically made with a wrapper that turns crisp when cooked in oil.
What sauce goes with Vietnamese spring rolls?
Vietnamese spring rolls are commonly served with nước chấm, a tangy fish-sauce dip, or hoisin-peanut sauce. Either works well with the fresh herbs and rice noodles; choose a dip that suits the filling and any dietary needs.
How do you make Vietnamese spring rolls?
To make Vietnamese spring rolls, briefly soften rice-paper wrappers in water, add cooked shrimp or another filling with noodles and vegetables, then fold in the sides and roll tightly. Avoid soaking the wrappers too long, or they may tear.
What is the difference between Vietnamese spring rolls and egg rolls?
Vietnamese spring rolls are commonly fresh rolls wrapped in rice paper, while egg rolls are typically wrapped in a thicker wheat-based wrapper and fried until crisp. Names vary by country, so check whether a recipe describes a fresh or fried roll.
Are Vietnamese spring rolls healthy?
Vietnamese spring rolls can be a light, vegetable-rich meal, especially when filled with herbs and shrimp and served with a modest amount of dipping sauce. The sauce can add substantial salt or sugar, so its portion matters.
How do you keep Vietnamese spring rolls from sticking together?
Keep Vietnamese spring rolls from sticking by placing them apart on a plate and covering them with a clean, slightly damp cloth. Rice paper becomes tacky as it sits, so avoid stacking the rolls before serving.
Can you make Vietnamese spring rolls ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare Vietnamese spring rolls a few hours ahead, but the rice-paper wrappers may dry out or turn chewy. Arrange them without touching, cover with a damp cloth, and refrigerate in a sealed container.
Can Vietnamese spring rolls be frozen?
Vietnamese spring rolls are not ideal for freezing because thawing can make the rice-paper wrapper brittle, sticky or wet. For better texture, prepare the fillings in advance and assemble the rolls shortly before serving.
Are Vietnamese spring rolls the same as summer rolls?
Usually, yes: “summer rolls” commonly refers to fresh Vietnamese spring rolls wrapped in rice paper. The name is especially common in English-language menus, while ingredients and dipping sauces vary from one recipe to another.

What is Vietnamese spring roll?
Vietnamese spring roll is a fresh Vietnamese roll made by wrapping fillings in softened rice paper. Common fillings include crisp vegetables, fresh herbs and rice noodles, often with shrimp. Unlike fried rolls, these are served uncooked, so the ingredients retain their distinct colours and textures.
In Vietnam, they’re often eaten as a light meal or starter with a dipping sauce; they also work well as a fresh, portable lunch elsewhere. The wrapper is tender and slightly chewy, while the vegetables and herbs bring crunch and freshness. At about 110 calories per 100 g, they make a relatively light option. For a lighter serving, add plenty of vegetables and serve the dipping sauce on the side.
