Low-Sodium Fermented Shrimp

Low-Sodium Fermented Shrimp is a traditional Korean fermented shrimp condiment (saeujeot) used to add deep umami and salty flavor to kimchi, stews and dipping sauces. It is typically enjoyed in small amounts as a seasoning rather than a main ingredient. Nutrition-wise, Low-Sodium Fermented Shrimp is notable as a concentrated source of protein, providing about 17g of protein per 100g, and also contributes marine nutrients such as omega‑3s, selenium and vitamin B12. Because it is a fermented seafood product, it delivers pronounced savory depth and micronutrients characteristic of seafood while the reduced‑salt version lessens sodium compared with the traditional product; it’s therefore useful when you want the distinctive flavor of saeujeot but are watching salt intake.
