What is vannamei shrimp?

Vannamei (Litopenaeus vannamei), also called whiteleg shrimp, is the most farmed shrimp in Malaysia. In Malay it is udang putih. The shell is thin and pale, the meat is sweet and soft, and it cooks in a few minutes, which is why home cooks and food stalls use it most.

Why buy from the pond

• Saltwater ponds, probiotics, no chemicals.
• Harvested when you order, not stored for days.
• Choose the size for the dish, from small for fried rice to large for grilling.
• Retail for families, wholesale from 10 kg for restaurants.

Sizes and what to cook

Shrimp is graded by the number of pieces per kilo: the lower the number, the bigger the shrimp. Small sizes suit fried rice, noodles and fritters. Medium suits curries, turmeric fry and butter prawns. Large suits grilling and party platters. Ask which sizes are being harvested this week.

For restaurants, caterers and home cooks

Most of our white shrimp goes to two kinds of buyers: families who drive in on weekends, and restaurants, stall owners and caterers who buy 10 kg or more at a time. Wholesale orders start at 10 kg; see borong udang segar for how wholesale pickup works.

Taking shrimp home from Pahang to KL & Selangor

The pond is roughly three and a half to four hours by road from Kuala Lumpur, so plan the trip home. Bring a cooler box, ask for the shrimp to be packed in ice, and keep the box closed until you reach your kitchen. Once home, rinse, drain and refrigerate or freeze on the same day.

Cooking white shrimp so it stays sweet

Vannamei has thin shell and cooks fast. Add it last to curries and stir-fries and take it off the heat as soon as it turns pink and curls. Two Malaysian recipes we use: udang masak lemak cili api and udang goreng kunyit. Sizes are explained in saiz udang ikut gred.
