Ok, it's summer time and time for refreshing light yet satisfying eats. I
was wondering if someone has an authentic (or close as possible) recipe for
Thai Spring rolls. Not the fried kind, the fresh spring rolls.
Other questions:

(1) ?what brand wrappers do you recommend?--there are so many out there

(2) I'd like to add some kind of protein without the heaviness--tofu
possibly?

(3) Sauces--peanut...yummy (not from package though), and the soy based
ones,as well as the thick orange-syrupy hot stuff. The more fiery, better.

(4) While this is probably considered the appetizer, what other dishes
compliment this? Let your imaginations roar, or soar!

I've probably forgot a few other points but that's the generally idea. I
live somewhat close to Bay area Lion's, Ranch 99, etc...so getting the
stuff should be easy.

I know there are many takes on the 'FRESH' spring roll, but the THAI ones
are my fave right now.

I'm looking forward to some great cooking everyone. You all are a wealth
of knowledge as well as creative cooks.

Thanks in advance.
