1 pound extra-firm tofu -- cut into 1/4-inch x 3-inch slices
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
2 teaspoons ginger juice
2 garlic cloves -- grated

Place the tofu in a reusable plastic bag. Add the soy sauce, rice vinegar,
ginger juice, and garlic. Refrigerate overnight.

The next day, prepare the rice stick noodles and rice paper wrappers
according to the package instructions.

Add 1/4 cup of noodles toward the middle of each wrapper.

Equally divide the chard, slices of tofu, and basil among the wrappers.

Fold the rice paper from both sides in toward the middle, then tightly
roll the end away from you until the spring roll is closed. Serve
immediately.

AuthorNote: Summer rolls are so named because they are served cold,
perfect for the hot summer months.

If you would like an even firmer, meatier texture in your tofu, it is
easy. Simply wrap the tofu in a paper towel. Place a brick or heavy cans
on the tofu. Allow to sit for at least an hour before use.
