There are two kinds, one made with fish and one with small shrimp
They are smaller shrimp it seems and of course, there is a lavender tinge to them which may be coloring.
It is very salty, and has a certain smell which a lot of people object to but it is yummy with bitter melon or chayote ( it is almost like a squash that I peel and sliced like an onion) to saute after I cook garlic, onion ginger and ground pork.
