Ban Trang Rice Paper

Banh Trang (Vietnamese rice paper) are thin, dried, edible wrappers made from rice flour, tapioca starch, water, and salt. Primarily used for summer rolls (gỏi cuốn) or fried spring rolls, they are typically low-calorie, fat-free, and high-carb. A single sheet contains roughly 30–45 calories, depending on size, making them a light, versatile wrapper.

Appearance: Thin, translucent, brittle sheets, often with a textured, bamboo-mat pattern.

Usage: They must be dipped in warm water for a few seconds to become pliable before wrapping fresh herbs, vegetables, and proteins.

Can be used fresh (for salads) or fried (for crispy spring rolls).
