✨Another series of shrimp sticks from small to big✨ After an hour, I eat more prawn strips. After I went to college, this kind of nongshim became popular. Among the puffed foods, the favorites from childhood to adulthood are Langweixian and shrimp sticks No matter how you eat it, you won't get tired of it. It tastes better when paired with a variety show. I remember watching dramas together in the dormitory when I was in college, domestic dramas, Korean dramas, anime I just like to go to the canteen downstairs in the school dormitory, buy a bunch of snacks and go home Then eat snacks, watch the drama, and complain about the dog blood in the drama with roommates There are also several flavors of this shrimp stick, but I still like the original series the most. I punched in this spicy series before, and I feel that the spicy powder is heavier Some cover the umami of the shrimp strips themselves, and they don't have the original flavor. The seasoning of this shrimp stick is heavier, it will be more salty if you eat too much, it will be served with drinks Let's just say, while snacking and drinking, watching dramas and watching variety shows 🉑️

Frequently Asked Questions

We answer everything you want to know about Prawn Crackers.

What are prawn crackers made of?

Prawn crackers, also known as shrimp chips, are primarily made from a mixture of ground prawns (or shrimp), tapioca flour (starch), and water. This dough is seasoned with salt and sugar, steamed, sliced thinly, and dried. When deep-fried, the starch expands rapidly, creating the signature light and airy crunch.

What are prawn crackers called in the US?

In the United States, prawn crackers are most commonly referred to as 'shrimp chips.' While the terms are often used interchangeably, 'shrimp chips' is the prevalent name found in American grocery stores, whereas 'prawn crackers' is more common in Asian markets and international contexts.

How are prawn crackers traditionally served?

Prawn crackers are incredibly versatile. They are traditionally served as a crunchy appetizer or snack, often accompanied by dipping sauces like sweet chili or peanut sauce. In Southeast Asian and Chinese cuisines, they are also used as edible scoops for rice, curries, or stir-fries, and can even be crumbled over soups and salads for added texture.

Are there different types of prawn crackers?

Yes, there are many regional varieties! Chinese prawn crackers are often light and non-spicy, sometimes coming in multi-colored varieties. Thai prawn crackers (like Hanami) tend to be spicier and more seasoned, while Korean shrimp crackers (like Nongshim) are famous for their unique baked-like texture and bold flavors.

Are there healthier versions of prawn crackers available?

While traditional prawn crackers are deep-fried, many modern brands available on Yami, such as Nongshim and Calbee, offer non-fried or baked versions that provide the same satisfying crunch with less oil. Always check the product description for specific dietary and preparation details.
