    Thank you Julia for doing the research and doing justice to gỏi cuốn! I usually stay away from watching non-Vietnamese people cook Vietnamese dishes, because it's hard to watch when your favorite food is misrepresented. But Julia's recipe is pretty much flawless, from the noodle preparation, to the rolling technique and the sauces, not to mention the pronunciation. I'm really impressed!
    I still remember Gordon Ramsey's summer roll recipe... Oh gosh, he called rice noodles glass noodles, soaked rice paper in water for waaay too long so it came out drenched and dripping water, the whole thing was just a ridiculous mess and I died inside while watching it.
    But Julia's recipe restored some faith in humanity in me.

If she can try to adapt those dishes to a healthier version, using authentic Asian ingredients, it would be a public service. And yes, she's not Chinese, but has an Asian palette, free from a lifetime of. tons of sugar and butter. ATK, more Lan please

    I would enjoy the various cooks describing their personal knives and why they chose them. ATK has done a great job of picking the "best" with the Victorinox but it is not what you see with the "Cooking at Home" presentations. I think the individuality expressed with the knife selections would be informative and entertaining.

    For the goi cuon. In Vietnam we use pork belly because it has some fat in it just to make sure the meat is moist and tender and for the shrimp we usually for the most case use tiger shrimp because its more crunchy and when it cook the red stripe are brighten given the best presentation on the dish. For the herbs I don't see this alot in America but there should some chives and some Vietnamese put bean sprouts and cucumber sticks in it. But you can use any veggies or herb available at the grocery stores.

    Got a $1.20 bench scraper that does the same thing. I find it easier to hold the steel flat, resting the tip end on a cutting board or drying towel. Then I can control the angle of the blade easier and less chance of hitting the cutting edge on the counter, thus not damaging either counter or knife edge.
