  4. Meanwhile, soak one rice paper sheet at a time in warm filtered water for 10 seconds. Place it on a silicone mat.
  5. Spoon 3 tablespoons warm rice in the lower third of the rice paper, leaving a 2-inch border.

  7. Roll tightly using a sushi mat if needed. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

Notes

Soothe rice paper skin dryness by using filtered water for soaking.
Ask your fishmonger for salmon labeled 'rolling grade'
Use a sushi mat to prevent the rice paper from crumbling.
For optimal texture, cook salmon to an internal temperature of 120°F.
Work quickly after soaking the rice paper—they stay pliable for about 20 seconds.
