While shopping in an Asian market,I picked up a package of spring roll wrappers to make the egg rolls I usually make. While making them,I noticed the spring rolls wrappers were much thinner than the egg roll wrappers I usually buy at the grocery store. The spring rolls were so crispy,my family and I loved them,so now I buy spring roll wrappers,if you can find them they are preferable. I like to dip them in sweet chili sauce or plum sauce.
