Crispy Shrimps

Crispy Shrimps are among the best pasalubong buys when you find yourself in Aklan. In a recent trip to Kalibo for Globe Platinum's Noah's Ark Classroom Project Groundbreaking , we found ourselves really enjoying this ultimate Akeanon treat. This snack treat is as heavenly as the white sands of Boracay at the same time native as the Ati-Atihan Fesitval. Its made with whole unshelled shrimps - thoroughly cleaned and then mixed in the flour, salt, pepper and other seasoning mixture. It is then finally deep fried to give it a a perfect crunch in every bite. ( I assume though that they are sun-dried first before being fried )  Even though it has been packed, maybe even for days, it still has the crisp and crunch in every bite. Ofcourse, once you open a pack, you will surely be addicted on the first bite and really wanting for more! Popular brands selling this Aklan pasalubong specialty are Jocyl's, Nelfa & John, and Rosa's where I got these pack for PhP50/each
