About Dried shrimps

Dried shrimps are small shrimps that are sun-dried to preserve their flavor and texture and are widely used in Asian, African, and Latin American cuisines. They add a concentrated umami taste to soups, stir-fries, curries, and sauces. Rich in protein, dried shrimps are a good source of essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and iron, beneficial for bone health and muscle function. They also contain omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health. However, due to their preservation process, dried shrimps can be high in sodium, which may not be ideal for low-sodium diets. They are naturally low in carbohydrates and fat, making them a nutrient-dense addition to many dishes when eaten in moderation. Their intense flavor and nutritional benefits make them a staple ingredient in many traditional recipes around the world.
