Bánh Tráng Trộn — mixed rice paper salad — is a Vietnamese street food that's become a cult favorite in the United States. The base is shredded rice paper, hand-torn into strips and tossed with a savory-sweet-sour-tangy dressing of Vietnamese fish sauce, sugar, lime, garlic, and chili. Mix-ins vary by vendor: green mango, jicama, carrot, cucumber, herbs, quail eggs, dried shrimp, beef jerky, peanuts, and toasted sesame seeds. It's the dish that turned a generation of American diners into bánh tráng trộn obsessives.
