At the supermarket, most of us flip the packet, check the instructions, and move on. Honestly? Fair enough. We’re busy. 
 
But that marinade with the confident ingredient list? Contains mystery numbers or scientific names like Maltodextrin or 551.  
 
These aren’t evil. They’re not going to kill you tomorrow. They’re just there so the product can survive the warehouse, the shipping container, and your cabinet until 2027. Convenient - for the manufacturer. 
 
Our ingredient list reads like something your grandmother would recognise. 
 
The trade-off? Real spice behaves like food - it has a shelf life, responds to its environment, and won’t pretend otherwise. So this carousel is our side of the deal: we keep it honest, you learn how to keep it well. 
 
If for some reason, it reaches you spoiled or expired - just let us know and we’ll make good on our promise and exchange it. That’s our promise. Along with spices ground fresh every morning at 6am.

On the 14th August of 2014, I followed my parents to the Yishun outlet for the very first time. On the 1st of January 2020, I officially took over from my parents. On 12th Jan 2021, I first opened an outlet within NTUC. In December of 2022, I spent almost all my savings to open a factory outlet to support my business. On 19th Dec 2025, I opened my second standalone outlet in Pasir Ris. 
 
Not all my decisions have been raging successes. There have been so many times I wanted to throw in the towel. But every single time, between staying put and taking the leap of faith, there is only one right decision for me. 
 
My ultimate goal is to spread the love and passion of spices far and wide, and for every Singaporean to know about our amazing spices. Spice-mixing is a dying trade, but I will do whatever it takes for it to live far beyond my own years. 
 
Deeply honoured to pause and reflect on aspects of my entrepreneurial journey and discuss money matters with Annabelle Liang at The Straits Times. Thank you for the feature, . And thank you too, to my loyal customers for your unwavering support to keep us firmly rooted to our goals! Link to the article is saved on our highlights under ‘Features’ if you wish to read it!

We spent a Saturday morning recently with Singapore’s Citizen Translators - the folks making sure messages land right across the main languages. Suffice to say… they didn’t hold back putting Jeya to the test either with his linguistic abilities!

Between spice trivia, some history lessons and hands-on blending, things got spicy with this fun bunch!

From South Asia, Southeast Asia to East Asia, dried shrimps are used extensively in cooking. While it’s commonly used here for Mee Rebus, Mee Siam, Laksa and Hae Bee Sambal on our local shores, dried shrimp is also used frequently elsewhere such as in South Indian dishes like Endu royya pappu, a lentil-based curry, Chinese chilli oil, and even in Korean broths and stews. In Brazil, dried shrimps are grounded to a fine powder and used as a condiment, or an edible garnish.

For the newbie cooks, all dried shrimp looks the same. But ask the auntie in front of you when you’re at Jeya Spices, and she’ll tell you that the orangest of the lot is not the best udang kering for the Laksa you’re planning to cook this weekend.

Dried shrimps come in shelled and de-shelled, and it’s often priced according to their size and amount of processing involved. The cheapest udang kering have actually been coloured orange to capture your attention but it doesn’t mean they are not delicious! It’s still great for adding some umami and flavour to favourite dishes like chilli oil where you want a stronger flavour profile.

Less processed dried shrimps are more pale, and they tend to be larger in size too, making it more expensive. It’s great for cleaner tasting dishes like hot pot broths, soups or simply hydrated and stir fried with veggies.

Prices of udang kering have shot through the roof! Why? These are mainly imported from Indonesia. And as some of you might know the rupiah has been weakening against our dollar due to tensions in the Middle East.

While their prices have increased by more than 20 percent, our price increases at Jeya Spices are controlled and measured. We try to hold the price as long as possible as many of our customers have been shopping with us since eons ago!

Save and share this post then come drop by Jeya Spices either at Yishun or Pasir Ris and maybe try something different to see what new flavour profiles you can create!
