Mix the shrimp paste with the tapioca starch until it forms a dough (you may need a few tbsps of additional starch to make it come together). Divide into 4 equal pieces, and knead 2 drops of food coloring into each piece if desired. Roll out each piece of dough into 1\u00bd-inch thick cylinders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boil the dough logs for 12-15 minutes. Remove to a rack, and let them dry in a cool, dry place overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next morning, carefully slice the chips as thinly as possible. Spread the chips evenly on a bamboo basket or sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Dry them out completely in a cool, dry place for at least 24 hours. Store in an airtight container in the pantry.
