About Katkaravut

Katkaravut, also known as dried shrimp, is a popular ingredient in various cuisines, especially Southeast Asian, African, and Caribbean cooking. These small, sun-dried crustaceans have an intense umami flavor and are often used to enhance soups, stews, salads, and sauces. Rich in protein and low in carbohydrates, katkaravut is a great source of essential nutrients, including calcium, magnesium, and vitamin B12, which are beneficial for bone health, energy production, and immune support. However, its high sodium content can be a concern for those monitoring their salt intake. Additionally, some brands may contain preservatives, so selecting high-quality, natural options is recommended. Its concentrated flavor means small portions go a long way, making it a versatile ingredient in nutrient-packed meals while complementing a balanced diet.
