Recipes with seaweeds

Shrimp Paste Seaweed Rolls pair a smooth, delicate egg sheet with a savoury shrimp paste filling, layered with seaweed and a little shredded carrot for contrast. The shrimp paste is seasoned with soy sauce, white pepper, and salt, then lightly bound with corn starch for a cohesive, sliceable texture. Once rolled and steamed, the result is a neat, umami-forward bite with a gentle egg richness, a marine seaweed edge, and a clean savoury finish—ideal for cutting into small pieces and serving as a shareable appetiser or snack.
