Kalkag refers to an Ilonggo delicacy of tiny shrimps, lightly salted and dried.

Kalkag is one of the ingredients used by some Ilonggo families when cooking fried rice. Kalkag is Alamang in Tagalog dialect, but a dried version. Some Ilonggo families who are familiar with Kalkag,  just often heat them in the pan with no oil since they easily get "burned". But Kalkag is best when cooked with rice to make fried rice (Kalo-Kalo) with Kalkag.  Sometimes, Kalkag is used as a garnish over sauteed assorted vegetable dishes (with Sitaw and Kalabasa, yummy) or even end up as Torta (Omelette).

Available in 100/250 grams
