VIETNAMESE SOUR TSUNAMI FRESH ROLLS

This must be one of my all-time favorite Asian-influenced dishes. You can rely on these rolls for a flavor-packed summer lunch or even a light dinner outside on a warm evening. I prefer heaps of fresh mint, Thai basil, cilantro, shaved vegetables like young carrot, cucumber, and even daikon radish. With a handful of precooked light rice vermicelli noodles, fresh crisp lettuce leaves, and fresh cannabis leaves wrapped tightly in a soft rice paper wrapper (aka a luscious vegetable blanket). These rolls are extremely healthy and light. Ready for a quick dunk into a spicy tang tang or peanut sauce. Truly refreshing in the heat of the late spring or early summer sun. These dank green vegetable rolls are easily distinguished from other rolls by the fact that they are not fried. Quality is always important to keep in mind, especially if you are going to be eating raw cannabis. I tend to choose the younger tender shoots or leaves that have not been sprayed or treated with any chemicals. An abundant addition of raw vegetable protein, THCa, and CBDa are readily available in these raw cannabis and hemp leaves. Other than the fresh cannabis leaves I have chosen both sauces to serve with these rolls are made utilizing full-spectrum cannabis-infused soy sauce and rice wine vinegar. Both sauces are completely vital to serving alongside these fresh rolls in my mind. One is savory, sweet, and fatty. The other dank, dark, and salty. With several prerequisites filled… healthy, light, and slightly cannabisinfused I am ready to dig in. When you decide to make these vibrant snacks at home be sure to have all your ingredients and things in place and ready to go. The process of making the rolls is fast, and they disappear off the plate just as fast as you can roll them!
