Peanut Sauce
Whisk together all of the ingredients and store in the fridge before using. Whisk again just before use. 

Summer Rolls
1. Bring a medium saucepan of water to boil. Add shrimp and cook until bright pink and opaque. Run the shrimp under cold water, drain and pat dry with a paper towel. Cut into horizontal halves. 

2. Empty the saucepan and bring another batch of water to a boil. Add hot dogs until cooked. Cut the hot dogs into horizontal halves and set asides. 

3. Cook the rice noodles as per the directions on the packaging. Drain and set asides in a bowl. 

4. Set aside the chopped vegetables on various plates and place on the table. 

5. Fill a large flat bowl or saucepan with boiling hot water. Let water cool just enough to be able to stick your fingers in without burning yourself. Take a sheet of rice paper and gently dip it into the water until it is submerged enough to soak in some water. Once the paper is soft enough, lay it on a plate to prepare adding ingredients. 

6. Working very quickly with rice paper, line 2 tablespoons of peanut sauce down the middle of the rice paper. Add in the ingredients you would like in the roll, distributing evenly. 

7. Roll the wrap over once and fold in on the outside edges. Set on a plate and enjoy!

This recipe was learned from a very talented friend who surprised us with this, this past weekend. Thank you Moa! I will now forever record this in my blog so our familia can refer back to it when we can't make it together. :)
