First time I tried it

First time I tried it. Added depth to my kimchi.

That's exactly what it does, Minnie! Shrimp paste brings a savory depth to kimchi that's hard to replicate, and a little goes a very long way. Lovely to hear your first time using it paid off so well. Enjoy the results!

That's the lesson every cook learns with shrimp paste, Diana! A little really does carry a lot of depth, especially once it's toasted or fried off to mellow the pungency. Glad it's earned a place in your pantry.

Thank you, Elke! Trachang shrimp paste is a Thai kitchen staple for good reason, bringing that deep fermented savoriness to curry pastes and nam prik that nothing else quite replicates. Good to have it stocked whenever you need a replacement.

Hi Gary, it is fantastic to hear that the shrimp paste is hitting those intense notes for your Thai cooking. Keeping it in the freezer is a smart move to maintain that rewarding flavor over time.
