Hmyin ngapi is Myanmar shrimp paste made from the tiny shrimp caught in the fine 'hmyin-bai' net, with other small sea life mixed in. The catch is sun-dried on mats, mixed with salt, pounded and dried again three times, then packed into jars as a purple-brown paste. It is used both as a side dish and as a seasoning.

Hmyin ngapi is Myanmar shrimp paste made from the tiny shrimp caught in the fine 'hmyin-bai' net, with other small sea life mixed in. The catch is sun-dried on mats, mixed with salt, pounded and dried again three times, then packed into jars as a purple-brown paste. It is used both as a side dish and as a seasoning. Made in 5 steps over 3 months – 4 months. The longest step, pack into jars and ripen, takes 3–4 months (Ishige N. and Ruddle K. 1987). Salt is 20–25 % (Ishige N. and Ruddle K. 1987). Bacillus, dominant in the matured paste does most of the fermenting.
Hmyin ngapi is made from the tiniest shrimp of the fine net, pounded and sun-dried in rounds. Seinsa ngapi is the general name for shrimp paste eaten raw, and bazun ngapi is made from larger shrimp; the methods and uses are basically the same. Sources differ on the name. The Yadanabon paper calls hmyin and seinsa ngapi the shrimp pastes, while Wikipedia says hmyin ngapi is made from small fish and seinsa ngapi from prawns.
Bazun ngapiThe same paste made from relatively larger shrimp.
Factory hmyin ngapiRipened in concrete tanks with the liquid drawn off as shrimp sauce.
Safety
Salt and repeated sun-drying lower the water in the paste; keep it sealed from air. A 1999 thesis on lab-made Myanmar shrimp paste found food-poisoning bacteria at their lowest probable levels and toxic metals within the allowed limits. That result covers its own samples, not every batch, and at about pH 8 the paste gets no protection from acid. The Yadanabon paper says shrimp paste deteriorates during storage depending on the storage conditions and the type of paste.
