About Vietnamese prawn crackers

Vietnamese prawn crackers are a popular snack deeply rooted in Vietnamese cuisine. Made primarily from a blend of ground prawns, tapioca starch, and seasonings, they are typically dried into thin discs before being deep-fried to achieve their signature light, crispy texture. These crackers are known for their savory, seafood-forward flavor and satisfying crunch, often served alongside meals or as a standalone snack. While they boast a decent protein content thanks to the prawns, they are also high in calories and fat due to the frying process. Typically low in fiber, they may also contain a fair amount of sodium. While prawn crackers can be enjoyed in moderation, they are not considered a health food, making portion control key when incorporating them into a balanced diet. Their unique texture and taste, however, make them a flavorful staple in Vietnamese culinary traditions.
