| | | Looking for belacan
Hey all I was wondering if anyone knew where I could buy some belancan ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrimp_paste).
I tried looking for past threads and I only came across 2 threads where it was mentioned and both time it was mentioned by summerrain. As I understand it, summerrain makes her own. I'm looking for the ready made ones that come in blocks. I would so appreciate a heads up! Thank you in advance.  |

They certainly have shrimp paste in jars, several varieties of, and quite likely in the blocks you're looking for too, although I've never noticed specifically.

Yes they do have it. It's called Kapi (Thai) or Mam Ruoc (Vietnamese). I believe it's the same as blachan/belachan/terasi.
Go to their website > produkte > page 3 > fishsauce & shrimp paste. http://www.clovegarden.com/ingred/sf_shmpsaucz.html | | This user would like to thank Me Myself & I for this useful post: | |
