Description
Premium wild-caught Argentine Red Prawns (Pleoticus muelleri), harvested from the cold waters of the Southwest Atlantic off the coast of Argentina.
These prawns are renowned for their naturally sweet, rich flavor and tender texture, often compared to lobster.
They are shell-on and de-veined, allowing for maximum flavor retention while offering convenient preparation.
Key Features:
- Naturally red in color, even before cooking.
- Sweet, delicate flavor with a lobster-like taste and texture.
- Shell-on format helps retain moisture and enhances flavor during cooking.
- Quick cooking time compared to conventional shrimp.
- Ideal for grilling, sautéing, paella, seafood pasta, risotto, chowders, and shrimp cocktails.
Cooking Recommendations:
Cook only until the flesh turns opaque and firm. Overcooking may reduce the naturally tender texture. Excellent for:
- Grilling
- Pan-searing
- Garlic butter shrimp
- Paella
- Seafood pasta
- Shrimp tacos
- Skewers and BBQ applications
