Crackers

Krupuk udang (shrimp crackers) made of dried shrimp, tapioca flour, sugar, and salt is my favorite. They are sold as pinkish, flattened, hard disks. When deep-fried, they puff up into a curvy chip three times their original size and become super crunchy. Other types of krupuk include krupuk ikan (fish) and krupuk bawang putih (garlic). There’s also a special cracker made with the melinjo nut called emping.
