Tôm Rim Mặn Ngọt is a classic Vietnamese family meal that’s perfect for a weekday lunch or dinner; the recipe calls for just a couple handful of ingredients and comes together in less than thirty minutes. The shrimp is packed with intense sweet and salty flavors and is best enjoyed over rice and paired with a simple soup. The ultimate Vietnamese comfort food!
The shrimp used for this dish are usually the smallest ones that you can find at your grocery store, and the shell is absolutely edible. Growing up poor, nothing goes to waste, and that’s extra protein, baby. With that said, I know that’s not everyone’s jam and that’s A-Okay, feel free to shell your shrimp if you want.
The most pronounced flavor of this dish comes from the fish sauce, so having a good quality one is important. My entire life, my family has really only ever used Three Crabs brand, and it’s the one I swear by. I’ve tried other ones, and to me, there’s really just no comparison.
