Notes

  • The total time is based on 4 servings.
  • You can find some of the ingredients on online shopping sites, but for the most authentic flavor, I highly recommend going to an Asian or Vietnamese store.
  • If you want the rice paper to have a softer texture, let it rest for about 2 minutes after tossing it with the sauce.
  • Feel free to adjust the ingredients to your taste.
  • Banh tráng trộn is not an ideal make-ahead recipe, as the rice paper can become overly soggy if you let it sit for too long.
  • Pork cracklings and Vietnamese scallion oil are great additions to the salad.
