The Oishi brand, owned by Liwayway Marketing Corporation, is a giant in the snack market, originating from the Philippines. Although the word "Oishi" means "delicious" in Japanese, the company is a proud representative of the Filipino food industry, and its products are present in homes across Asia. Prawn crackers are their flagship product, manufactured using modern technologies that allow maintaining lightness and appropriate dough texture. Unlike traditional prawn crackers that need to be fried yourself, the Oishi product is a ready-to-eat snack.

The secret of the taste of these crackers is a rich composition of spices. The base is wheat flour and tapioca starch, which become extremely light and fluffy after baking. The shrimp flavor here is authentic and deep, and the addition of specially developed chili seasoning, garlic, and paprika gives the whole thing character. It is worth noting the presence of umami, enhanced by hydrolyzed soy protein and yeast extract, which makes it hard to stop at just one bite. Additionally, the use of different types of starch ensures a unique structure that is not hard, but pleasantly brittle.

Oishi Spicy Prawn Crackers are an excellent proposition for social gatherings. In the Philippines, they often serve as "pulutan" – a snack served with cold drinks, including beer, where their salty-spicy flavor profile works perfectly. They are also a great variety for home movie sessions, constituting a more interesting alternative to ordinary potato chips or popcorn. Thanks to their intense aroma and spicy "kick", they will satisfy the tastes of seekers of distinct Oriental flavors.
