ROLLING into spring
It matters little how well you cook if you have missing ingredients. I’m addicted to simple homemade spring rolls; fresh produce transforms into crispy little treasures. But, for the past couple of months, I’ve been unable to locate spring roll wrappers locally. Because of their delicate nature, I hesitate to have them shipped because if they arrive cracked, all their stuffing pops out when baked. Funny how one misses a simple $3 material when it has become a staple. This next Call is all about the materials. Take a look…
