A very simple and refreshing snack, that is incredibly delicious with the peanut and lime dipping sauce. 

And I finally worked out a way to fold the rice paper without tearing it.

Peanutbutter Dipping Sauce

  • I use my stick blender to get this smooth

  • for 1 serving use the following amounts

  • I usejar big enough to fit my stick blender into it

  • add 2 TB (tablespoons) peanut butter and 2 TB water to the jar, then add 

  • 1 tea (teaspoon) gf soya sauce

  • 1 tea sriracha sauce

  • 1 tea lime juice

  • 1 drop of stevia or 1/16 tea of ground stevia powder

  • blend until smooth and adjust spiciness to your licking

How to deal with Rice Paper

  • take half or a whole rice paper round, depending on how big you want them 

  • prepare your bench by lying a clean dry towel on the bench near the tap

  • rinse your rice paper under the running tap, until just wet on both sides and quickly lay it onto the towel 

  • do not try to move the rice paper anymore as it will most likely tear

Admire
