Summer rolls with Nước chấm dipping sauce

Place the rice noodles in boiling water and let them stand for 3 minutes, covered. Then drain and rinse with cold water. It's a good idea to keep them in a little cold water until serving to prevent sticking.

Wash and clean the vegetables, then cut them into 'julienne' strips, meaning thin, long strips. Wash the mint and pluck its leaves.

Pour warm water into a wide bowl or pan, and briefly (for about 10 seconds) dip the rice paper into it. Place the soaked paper on a clean surface. Place the ingredients in the center: first the shrimp (so they show through), then the noodles, vegetables, and mint.
