Dried shrimp

Dried shrimp are small shrimp that have been salted and dried, concentrating their briny, intensely savoury flavour into a firm, chewy texture. They are used throughout Southeast Asian cooking, either rehydrated, ground into a powder, or used whole to add umami depth to soups, sauces, and stir-fries. Their strong, pungent aroma mellows once cooked into a dish.
