    • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves, coarsely chopped
    • 18 round rice-paper wrappers (6 inches in diameter)
    • 1 head green-leaf lettuce, leaves separated, inner stalks of leaves cut out
    • 1/ 2 small red bell pepper, julienned
    • 1/ 2 small yellow bell pepper, julienned
    • 1 small jicama (about 12 ounces), peeled and julienned
    • 2 medium carrots, peeled and julienned

How to make
Asian salad wraps
  • Whisk together the hoisin sauce, lime juice, soy sauce, toasted sesame seeds, Asian chile oil, fish sauce, and brown sugar in a medium bowl.
  • Cook the noodles according to package instructions; drain. Combine the noodles, hoisin mixture, and cilantro in a large bowl; toss. Let stand at room temperature, tossing occasionally, 15 minutes.
  • Soak 1 rice-paper wrapper in a bowl of hot water until softened, 30 seconds to 1˙ minutes. Lay the wrapper flat on a paper towel or a piece of parchment paper. Cover with another paper towel or piece of parchment paper. Repeat with 2 more wrappers. Lay the wrappers flat on a clean work surface
  • Place 1 lettuce leaf (or part of a leaf) on top of 1 wrapper so the top edge of the leaf extends over the top edge of the wrapper. Top with a mix of bell peppers, jicama, carrots, mushrooms, and pea shoots. Place a small amount of the marinated noodles on top of the vegetables.
  • Fold the bottom two-thirds of the wrapper up over the filling. Fold 1 side over the filling and roll up tightly, being careful not to tear the wrapper. Gently tie a chive around the middle of the wrap to hold it together. Transfer to a large platter; cover with a damp paper towel. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling, working 3 at a time.
  • Refrigerate in an airtight container (or store in a chilled cooler) up to 2 hours until ready to serve.
