In Vietnam, they try to prepare a maximum of dishes from basic ingredients that are not similar to each other either in appearance or in the combination of tastes. Glass noodles, pork, shrimps, vegetables (onions, carrots), mushrooms, bean sprouts and an egg play completely differently if wrapped in rice paper - Nem Tom. Our restaurant NEM offers to order such an interpretation of familiar ingredients.
Juicy on the inside, crisp on the outside
Vietnamese shrimp and pork crepes are typical of Asian cuisine. What are these conclusions from?
- An extraordinary combination of seafood and meat.
- A winning combination of flavors: plain rice paper gets a pleasant crunch after being deep-fried, the juiciness of pork is transferred to adjacent vegetables, the density of the shrimp eliminates the loss of its taste.
- Minimal exposure to temperatures keeps vegetables semi-moist but caramelized. The texture is not lost, and the taste becomes richer.
- Not a hidden beauty. Nem with shrimps can only be ordered in rice paper. Its subtlety does not hide the filling, it is clear from what the dish is prepared.
To use all the senses, it is worth ordering Nem with shrimps (it is inexpensive). Seeing beauty, hearing a pleasant crunch, catching a rich aroma, eating only with your hands, dipping a roll in a fish dip, revealing a kaleidoscope of tastes after the first bite.
