    Title: Shrimp Spring Rolls w/Tangy Citrus Sauce
    Categories: Pastry, Seafood, Vegetables, Herbs, Citrus
    Yield: 4 servings

    4 (8") circular spring roll
    - skins
    Warm water
    2 oz Rice sticks
    1 sm (6") cucumber
    8 sm (U-60) shrimp; cooked,
    - peeled
    2 Green onions
    Handful of fresh cilantro
    - sprigs
    1/4 c Prepared duck sauce
    1 ts Minced ginger
    1 tb Unsweetened or fresh orange
    - juice

    In a large pie pan or shallow casserole dish, place 1
    spring roll skin so it lies flat. Pour in enough warm
    water to cover the skin by at least 1/2 inch. Allow it
    to soften about 2 minutes. Carefully transfer the skin,
    allowing excess water to drip off, to a serving plate.
    Repeat with each skin.

    Fill a 2 quart saucepan three-quarters full of water,
    place over medium heat, and bring to a boil. Add the
    rice sticks and cook approximately 3-5 minutes until
    softened. Drain well and allow to cool. Peel cucumber
    and cut off 1/2" from each end. Cut cucumber in half
    horizontally. Cut each half lengthwise into strips,
    about 1/2" thick; you will need 16 cucumber strips total
    for the rolls. (Store any extra cucumber in refrigerator
    if desired or discard.) Cut each shrimp in half,
    lengthwise, and set aside. Remove root end from green
    onions with a sharp knife. Cut a 4" segment from the
    white part of each onion, and split in half lengthwise.
    Combine all sauce ingredients in a small bowl and mix
    with a fork or small whisk.

    To make the spring rolls, start by placing approximately
    1/4 cup drained rice sticks in a column in the center of
    each skin. Place 2 pieces of cut cucumber on either side
    of the rice sticks (4 pieces total per skin). Top rice
    sticks with 4 halves of shrimp, equally spaced, and top
    with half an onion segment and 2 sprigs of fresh
    cilantro. Beginning at one edge, parallel to the column
    of filling, fold the skin over the column. Fold the top
    and bottom of the skin toward the middle to enclose the
    filling. Roll from the center toward the final edge of
    the skin, using your fingers to center the filling as
    you roll. Serve immediately at room temperature, or
    chill if desired. Serve with dipping sauce.
