Step 3Shrimp flour
How to pulverise dried shrimp
It took me a while to find these, but the oriental supermarket at the bottom-end of town did stock dried shrimp.
Exported from Thailand by Bangkok Dehydrated Marine Product Co. Ltd, imported by Double Happiness Wholesale Ltd, they are 95% shrimp and 5% salt.
Crush and grind the shrimp with a pestle and mortar. You'll find they're quite tough and a bit chewy, they end up a bit "mashed" and "shredded".
Add a little flour and grind some more. Flour helps separate the shrimp shreds
After a bit of work you'll have something a bit like flour, but lumpy.
Sieve the mixture into a bowl, that which does not pass through the sieve - grind some more.

Eventually most or all of the shrimp will have passed through the sieve. Either decide that is enough, or repeat the sieving and grinding until it is all flour.
