The Latest Restaurant Ingredient Shortage: Rice Paper | Eater

"A New York City restaurant alerted by its Asian dry-goods distributor to a rice paper shortage, prompting stockpiling of essentials; the kitchen prefers to remove items like crab imperial parcels and spring rolls from the menu rather than substitute wheat-based wrappers that would make the dishes inauthentic. For a rarer variety known as morning dew rice paper—thin enough to hydrate from the moisture in greens—the restaurant purchased a three-year supply to avoid disruption." - Bettina Makalintal
