Rice paper

Rice paper refers to a type of thin, translucent paper traditionally made from the pith of the rice plant or a combination of rice flour, water, and other natural ingredients. It is widely used in Asian cuisine for wrapping food items, such as spring rolls and dumplings. Unlike typical paper, rice paper is edible and has a delicate texture. It becomes pliable when soaked in water, making it easy to handle for wrapping. Aside from culinary uses, rice paper is also utilized in arts and crafts due to its unique properties, allowing for creativity in various projects.
