Creative Vietnamese can make tons of different dishes from just one type of rice paper, and there are many types.

All About Vietnamese Rice
Origin and name
Vietnamese rice paper
One must wet the rice paper to use.
Rice paper - banh trang was first made in the South of Vietnam and then its popularity spread throughout the country. It has different names as you move away. In the North, we call it banh da or banh cha in central Vietnam.

How to Make Rice Paper

Rice paper is made from a mixture of rice powder, cassava flour and water in a specific proportion. When combined, they create a milky liquid. When the liquid is ready, you use a coconut shell spoon to pour a thin layer onto a cotton cloth over boiling water. After it is cooked (or solidified), use a thin bamboo stick to hang it on a bamboo woven mat in the sun. Because it depends on how sunny it is, the dry weather is flexible. When you check it, and it breaks easily, then it is ready to use.

You can make the rice paper thin or thick - this depends on its purpose. We use the thin version for wrapping food, and the thicker texture for grilling. Mung bean flour, corn flour, and coconut water are sometimes added to the liquid to enhance the rice paper, along with some aromas such as pepper, salt or sugar. You can also choose the over all: sesame seeds, shredded coconut meat, onion and sometimes small shrimp. Everything that suits your creative and personal taste.
