Read more about Amphawa Shrimp Paste

Shrimp paste has been an important ingredient in Thai cooking for centuries. Known locally as "Kapi", it is made by fermenting small shrimp with salt and then sun-drying the mixture to develop its distinctive aroma and savory taste. The result is a concentrated seasoning paste that adds depth and complexity to many Southeast Asian dishes.

Amphawa shrimp paste is especially popular because the Amphawa region is known for its seafood products and traditional food production. This authentic Thai shrimp paste is commonly used to make Nam Prik Kapi, one of Thailand’s most famous chili dips served with fresh vegetables and fried fish.

Thai shrimp paste can also be used in stir-fried dishes, Thai curries, soups, and sauces. Only a small amount is needed to enhance the flavor of dishes with the distinctive umami taste that defines many Thai recipes.
