Notes

As you can see, most of the ingredients are pantry staples that are really easy to find! I like to use natural organic honey for the best results. Home-grown garlic would be wonderful too if you have it.

Fun Fact:

Why should you keep the meat cold when shaping the Nem Nướng?
For a juicy and springy texture.
