But again, this is a specialist Peranakan food item that gets better with age. Just remember to lightly toast it in slices before food prep. **Q: Is there an expiry date? How come it says expires 12/22/2017 on features & details?** A: The blocks of shrimp paste belachan I’d purchased about a month have varying expiry dates too. One expires 07/15/22 and the other expires 12/15/21. This is a staple food in my Peranakan family’s diet as with all other such families of this culture. I’m not concerned about the expiry date as the quality of this particular food item gets better with age. If it’s kept refrigerated, it can last for as long as 8 years although, it will probably be consumed in much lesser time than that. It’s used as a condiment mixed with chillie peppers and lime juice. It’s also used as a base for some really spicy dishes. The shrimp that’s in the belachan is already preserved before converting into belachan. Personally, the expiration date is a formality. It tastes better with age. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ Bitter after taste *by A***R on October 14, 2020* The belacan is too strong, as in, it has a really bitter after taste. I was making sambal nasi lemak, & the belacan just overpowered the taste of the sambal, even though on my second try, I reduced the belacan quantity from the recipe. ## Frequently Bought Together - Shrimp Paste Belacan Penang 250 gram - Belacan Shrimp Paste - Shrimp & 6A Brand (250g/8.82oz) Product of Malaysia - Soeos Galangal Slices 6 Ounces, Non-GMO Verified, Kosher, Great Galangal - Alpinia Galanga, Perfect for Tom Yum and Tom Kha Soups, Authentic Product of Vietnam, Sliced Dried Galangal Root, 6oz. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.de/products/78991077-shrimp-paste-belacan-penang-250-gram](https://www.desertcart.de/products/78991077-shrimp-paste-belacan-penang-250-gram) --- *Product available on Desertcart Germany* *Store origin: DE* *Last updated: 2026-07-10*
