RICE VERMICELLI SALAD WITH GRILLED PORK AND SPRING ROLLS



Rice Vermicelli Salad With Grilled Pork and Spring Rolls image

While living in Colorado, I worked for an all Vietnamese company that made wreaths and wall decorations out of red river birch and white willow twigs as their office manager. I worked there for 10 years and became very close to the people that I worked with. Often the owner of the company would treat me to lunch from his favorite Vietnamese restaurant. I always requested this dish. He once told me the name of it but darned if I could ever understand what he was saying, let alone how to spell it. Anyway, I just had to recreate this wonderful Vietnamese dish from memory because I have missed it so much. Here is what I have come up with.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe pomelos: Look for pomelos with a bright yellow or slightly greenish-yellow color. Avoid pomelos with blemishes or bruises.
  • Segment the pomelo carefully: Use a sharp knife to cut around the membrane of each segment, then gently pull the segments apart. Be careful not to break the segments.
  • Soak the rice vermicelli: Before cooking the rice vermicelli, soak it in warm water for 10 minutes, or until it is softened. This will help to prevent the vermicelli from becoming too sticky.
  • Use a light dressing: The dressing for this salad should be light and flavorful. A simple vinaigrette made with rice vinegar, lime juice, and fish sauce is a good option.
  • Add some herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro, mint, and basil, can add a lot of flavor to this salad. Add them just before serving.
