Soft Asian Summer Rolls with Sweet and Savory Dipping Sauce

Notes: 

Yes, the prep on this is labour intensive and yes, there are a lot of ingredients required. But once you get everything chopped and organized, it's essentially an assembly line. I'll definitely be making this one again ... with more shrimp next time, though! (I will double the quantity.) The work involved was REALLY worth the effort - this one is a keeper, for sure!
