How do you keep rice paper rolls from sticking together?
Rice paper wrappers are sticky. The easiest way to keep them from sticking to your work surface and themselves it to keep them wet. Working on a damp towel also helps prevent sticking and aids rolling.
Why are my rice paper rolls sticky?

How long do rice paper rolls last in fridge?
Storing: The rolls taste best the day they are made, but they can be stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Wrap each roll individually in plastic wrap (to keep the wrapper soft and to keep them from sticking together) and store in an air-tight container in the fridge.
Is rice paper supposed to be chewy?
Rice paper wrappers are super thin, crisp, circular sheets made of rice flour, salt and water. A quick soak in warm water and they soften to create the slightly chewy, tasteless skins that we wrap spring rolls in.
Can rice paper rolls be made the day before?
If this isn’t possible, you can make rice paper rolls an hour or two in advance but don’t put them in the fridge. They need to be at an ambient temperature. If you put them in the fridge they will dry out. And never eat rice paper rolls the day after they’ve been made.
Can you freeze rice paper rolls?
We don’t recommend freezing them as the rice paper is too delicate to be frozen and reheated. Plus they ‘d just never be as good as fresh rolls!
Can you heat up rice paper rolls?
Dip the rolls in filtered water quickly and wipe off excess water. Put the rolls in a microwave safe tray and cover with a wet paper towel. Let sit for a minute before enjoying.
Do you Soak rice paper in hot or cold water?
Use cold water: After dunking wrappers into hot, warm, and cold water, we found that the hotter the water, the faster the wrapper hydrated and turned sodden and sticky. Cold water moistens the wrapper more slowly, which gives you more time to work.
What aisle would rice paper be in?
Buying and Storing Depending on where you live, you might get lucky and find rice paper wrappers sold in the International food aisle of your local grocery or health food store. Otherwise, the best selection will be at Vietnamese or Chinese food market.
