Dried Shrimp

Dried Shrimp is a popular ingredient across many Asian and coastal cuisines where tiny shrimp are sun-dried or kiln-dried to concentrate their savory, umami flavour; they’re commonly used whole, crushed, or ground into a powder to season soups, sauces and stir-fries. Nutritionally, Dried Shrimp is chiefly prized as a very rich source of protein, providing about 72g of protein per 100g, while being low in total fat. It is also naturally high in micronutrients important for nerves and antioxidant protection, particularly vitamin B12 and selenium, and delivers a high-quality amino acid profile useful for building and repairing tissue.
