Tiny fresh Acetes shrimp are mixed with salt and sugar, sometimes with cooked rice, and sealed in a jar for a few days. The shrimp turn soft, bright pink and savoury as the pH drops from about 8 to about 5.5. Cincalok is a quick, low-salt shrimp ferment eaten with shallot, chilli and lime. Made in 4 steps over 21 days – 32 days. The longest step, eat within weeks, before it browns, takes up to 18 days (Nofiani R 2021). Salt is 4 % (Nofiani R 2021). Tetragenococcus and Lactobacillus do most of the fermenting.
Amounts from a sourceThe original recipe (recipe A) a West Kalimantan producer made for a 2021 study. Malaysian recipes use the same shrimp, salt and sugar with no fixed amounts.

What makes this one different
Cincalok is a ferment of whole raw shrimp that is ready in days. Belacan and kapi are made from the same kind of shrimp but are salted harder, dried and pounded into a firm paste that ages for weeks or months.
Ronto (South Kalimantan)The South Kalimantan name for the same shrimp ferment; the market samples studied were made with salt only.
Cincalok with chilli or garlicAdding red chilli or garlic powder changes the colour; garlic gave a paler pink and scored best with consumers in one study.
Safety
Cincalok is low in salt (about 4 % in one recipe) and ends near pH 5.3–5.5. The FDA's pathogen table puts the limits for growth of proteolytic Clostridium botulinum at pH 4.6 and 10 % water-phase salt, so neither salt nor acid alone is a full barrier, and cincalok is a short-life food. Malaysian cincalok averaged 126.1 mg/kg histamine and 448.8 mg/kg tyramine (Saaid et al. 2009), above the FDA's 50 ppm histamine guidance level for fish. Use fresh shrimp.
Hazards the sources name: Bacillus cereus, Clostridium perfringens, Staphylococcus aureus and Enterobacteriaceae (tested for over 28 days and not found).
Cencaluk is believed to come from Sumatra and to have reached the Malay Peninsula through trade. It is part of Malay home cooking and festive meals in Melaka, Johor and Pahang (JKKN).
