One of the most interesting prawn products that I have come across is the prawn cracker. The
crackers I eat are manufactured by Shanghai Liwayway Prawn Cracker & Foodstuffs Co., LTD. under the
Pigeon Brand.
The chips start as a brownish-green half circle. They look almost like an eyeglass lens. They need to be deep fried (which doesn’t take long) and end-up looking a lot like pork rinds, but here’s the catch....they’re not, they’re prawn!
Prawn crackers have many good points: cheep, long shelf life and contain only three ingredients: starch, prawn meat, and “salt product” (hmm). They are suppose to taste good with wine, but I haven’t tried that yet.
