Dried Shrimp  (16 oz/Bag)

Prawns are a rich source of selenium, one of the most effective antioxidants at maintaining healthy cells. They also contain high levels of zinc, which is important to develop a healthy immune system. Eating prawns helps build strong bones because they contain phosphorous, copper, and magnesium.

You can use dried shrimp to flavor stir-fries, broths, and even dumplings. I love using it in fried rice, congee, or sticky rice. …soak the shrimp in water for 20 to 30 minutes before using it in stir-fries. This helps to soften the shrimp and release a bit of flavor.

Dried baby shrimp are an important ingredient in Thai cooking as well. It is mashed dry and added to oil, lime, and chili pepper to make a dressing for raw green papaya salad.

Efficacy: Shrimp is sweet, salty, and warm in nature. It nourishes the kidney/adrenal energy, strengthening yang, regulating qi, and improving flavors.
