My buddy Zoe and I’ve each been off gluten for ten years. One thing neither of us had in these days was spring rolls. We have made spring rolls with rice paper wraps earlier than, nevertheless it’s simply not the identical. Possibly they make gluten free spring roll wrappers available for purchase, however I do not know something domestically. We each missed spring rolls, so we determined that when she came around, Zoe and I’d make some spring rolls, with do-it-yourself spring roll wrappers. This wasn’t my first time making this dough, however I might solely used it to make wonton wrappers, not spring rolls.
Nonetheless, the final time I made this, even for wontons, was at the least 7 or 8 years in the past. So I used to be actually excited. I posted my recipe for do-it-yourself wonton and spring roll wrappers right here on my weblog 12 years in the past, however since then I’ve transformed it to make it gluten-free and egg-free (since I do not eat both), however ultimately I by no means shared it right here.
When Zoe and I made this, the primary time I attempted it, it failed miserably. You see, I attempted to make it simpler on myself and use a store-bought gluten-free flour combine, however the dough sucked. Regardless that I added further xanthan gum to make it smoother, the dough stored tearing, it did not maintain collectively properly, it was so onerous to work with and made me simply wish to give it up. I informed Zoe that making the dough should not be almost as dangerous, and I believe the issue was that I wasn’t utilizing my very own do-it-yourself combine. (There’s an assumption that store-bought merchandise are extra examined and official and higher than do-it-yourself, which is why I assumed it might work.)
Lastly, I made a decision sufficient was sufficient and began over with my do-it-yourself gluten-free flour combine, and from the primary second I noticed that my reminiscence was right – whereas gluten-free dough is at all times tougher to work with than gluten dough, and the shortage of gluten impacts the pliability of the dough, this dough was a dream to work with in comparison with the shop purchased flour combine dough.
To make my spring roll wrappers I first rolled it out a bit, then rolled it via my pasta curler (makes it quite a bit much less work in your arms, and makes the dough extra even) after which I rolled it some extra with a rolling pin. The rationale for that is that the pasta curler dough is not the widest, and also you wish to have wider spring roll wrappers than what a pasta maker rolls (at the least mine), however the pasta maker alone works nice for wonton wrappers which are smaller than spring rolls. The sides could fray a bit so squeezing can assist, however watch out because the dough is fragile.

When making these spring roll wrappers, remember that they will not be as skinny as common spring roll wrappers, so you will simply find yourself with a barely thicker wrapper. Once more, gluten-free dough would not have the gluten to stretch it that means.
This recipe is sufficient for about 10-12 spring rolls. (To be trustworthy, I did not rely, I simply ate.)
Notice: don’t substitute it. Use precisely what I say on this recipe or I am unable to assure it would work – the dough could be very finicky. Besides egg. You should use an egg as a substitute of the bottom flaxseed and boiling water.
There are a variety of different gluten-free (however not egg-free) spring roll recipes on the market, however a lot of them use hard-to-find substances. This recipe has all regular and easy-to-find substances, besides xanthan gum, which is a staple for gluten-free cooking, in order that falls beneath “common” substances for this. It was necessary to me to make this recipe in order that it really works
Half two will probably be the way to make the precise spring rolls.
