Frequently Asked Questions About Summer roll
What is a Summer roll?
A Summer roll is a Vietnamese-style fresh roll made by wrapping vegetables, herbs and often shrimp in softened rice paper. It is served uncooked, usually with a dipping sauce, rather than fried like many spring rolls.
Are Summer rolls the same as spring rolls?
No. Summer rolls are wrapped in soft rice paper and served fresh, while many spring rolls have a wheat or thicker wrapper and are fried. The names can vary by country, so menus may use them differently.
What sauce is served with Summer rolls?
Summer rolls are commonly served with a peanut-hoisin sauce or a tangy fish-sauce dip. For a quick fish-sauce dip, combine fish sauce with lime juice, water, garlic and a little sugar, then adjust to taste.
How do you soften rice paper for Summer rolls?
Dip each rice-paper sheet briefly in lukewarm water, then place it on a clean board while it is still slightly firm. It will continue softening as you add the filling; soaking until floppy makes it easier to tear.
Can you make Summer rolls ahead of time?
Yes, you can make Summer rolls a few hours ahead, but their wrappers may dry out or stick together. Arrange them without touching, cover with a lightly damp cloth, and refrigerate in a sealed container until serving.
How do you keep Summer rolls from sticking together?
Keep Summer rolls from sticking by spacing them apart and covering them so the rice-paper wrappers do not dry out. If you need to stack them, separate each layer with parchment or plastic wrap rather than letting the rolls touch.
Can Summer rolls be made without shrimp?
Yes, Summer rolls can be made without shrimp by filling them with tofu, cooked chicken, or extra vegetables and herbs. Use a dipping sauce that matches the filling, and keep the ingredients compact so the wrapper closes neatly.
How long do leftover Summer rolls last?
Leftover Summer rolls are best eaten the same day because refrigeration can make the rice paper firm and chewy. Store them covered in the refrigerator, and discard any rolls that have been left at room temperature for an extended period.
Should shrimp be cooked for Summer rolls?
Yes, shrimp in Summer rolls is usually cooked, cooled and peeled before being wrapped. Fully cooking it makes the filling safer to handle and eat; sliced shrimp also makes the rolls easier to assemble and serve.
What do you serve with Summer rolls for a meal?
Serve Summer rolls with a dipping sauce and a bowl of broth, noodle soup or a simple salad for a fuller meal. Since the rolls are often light, adding a protein-rich filling such as tofu or shrimp can make them more satisfying.

What is Summer roll?
A Summer roll is a Vietnamese fresh roll made by wrapping vegetables and herbs in softened rice paper; shrimp is a common addition, and some versions also include rice noodles. Unlike fried rolls, it is served fresh.
The wrapper is soft and slightly chewy, while the vegetables and herbs bring a crisp, fresh contrast. In Vietnam it is often enjoyed as a snack or light meal with a dipping sauce; it also works well as a starter or lunch for readers elsewhere. Its character is generally light, with modest fat and some protein when made with shrimp. Serve the sauce on the side if you would like to keep the meal lighter.
