Types of Dried Seafood: Dried Fish, Shrimp, Anchovy & Squid

Dried seafood covers any fish or shellfish preserved by removing moisture, which concentrates flavor and extends shelf life without a cold chain. Our catalog spans the most in-demand categories:

• Dried fish — including dried salted fish such as butterfly tilapia, a staple across Asian and African kitchens.
• Small dried fish — dried milk anchovy and dilis, prized for soft texture and natural sweetness.
• Dried shrimp — freeze dried shrimp with high protein and near-fresh quality.
• Dried squid — chewy, savory dried squid for snacks and cooking.

Freeze Dried vs Traditional Dried & Salted Seafood

Buyers choose between three preservation styles depending on flavor, texture and price point:

• Freeze dried — moisture removed at low temperature, preserving shape, color and nutrition (e.g. freeze dried shrimp). Premium quality, light weight, long ambient shelf life.
• Sun / air dried — the traditional method for dry fish and small dried fish, giving classic flavor and chew.
• Dried salted fish — salt-cured then dried (e.g. salted tilapia), for intense umami and extended shelf life.

Dried Fish Nutrition: Protein & Calories

Dried seafood is a concentrated source of nutrition. Because moisture is removed, dried fish protein per 100 g is high, while dried fish calories stay moderate and carbohydrates are low. Small dried fish and anchovies are eaten whole, delivering calcium, omega-3, vitamin B12 and vitamin D. Freeze dried shrimp offers 60g+ protein per 100 g, making dried seafood popular for high-protein, snack and clean-label products. Dried fish can also be milled into dried fish powder for seasoning and stock bases.

Dried Seafood for Snacks, Cooking & Recipes

Our dried seafood suits multiple uses: ready-to-eat dried fish snacks, crispy fried anchovy, soup and broth stock, stir-fries, and seasoning. For buyers searching how to make dried fish dishes or a dried fish recipe, dried anchovy makes a clean stock, dried tilapia pan-fries to a savory side, and freeze dried shrimp rehydrates as a topping. The dried format means easy storage, simple portioning and low shipping risk.

Frequently Asked Questions about Dried Seafood

What types of dried seafood does Baseafood supply?

We supply dried fish (including dried salted tilapia), freeze dried shrimp, dried anchovy (dilis) in white, gray, milk and unboiled types, and dried squid — available wholesale for export.

Is dried fish high in protein?

Yes. Removing moisture concentrates nutrients, so dried fish and dried shrimp are high in protein per 100 g with low carbohydrates. Small whole dried fish and anchovies also provide calcium, omega-3 and B vitamins.

What is the difference between freeze dried and traditionally dried seafood?

Freeze drying removes moisture at low temperature, preserving shape, color and nutrition with a light weight and long ambient shelf life. Traditional sun/air drying and salting give the classic flavor and chew of dry fish and dried salted fish.

Which dried seafood is popular in the Philippines?

Dilis (dried anchovy) is a Filipino staple, alongside dried fish styles such as danggit, tuyo and daing. Baseafood's dried milk anchovy and other anchovy grades serve this market directly.

How should dried seafood be stored and what is the shelf life?

Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight; refrigerate after opening vacuum packs. Shelf life depends on product and packing — typically 12 months for dried salted fish and 12–18 months for freeze dried shrimp in sealed packaging.
