Rice paper is a thin, translucent sheet made from rice flour, water, and often tapioca starch. Originating from Southeast Asian cuisine, particularly Vietnamese and Thai, it’s a staple for dishes like spring rolls and summer rolls. Naturally gluten-free and low in calories, rice paper is a lighter alternative to other wrapping options. It's versatile, softening with a quick soak in water, and has a neutral flavor that complements fresh fillings such as vegetables, herbs, shrimp, or tofu. While rice paper is minimally processed, its nutritional value is mainly carbohydrates with limited protein and fiber. For optimal health benefits, pair it with nutrient-rich fillings and avoid deep frying to mitigate added fats or calories. This delicate wrapper showcases the vibrant, fresh flavors of its fillings, making it a popular choice for health-conscious meals.
