Our famous Argentinian red prawns are sea frozen sealing the nutritional value, moisture and taste ensuring maximum freshness. They are also not glazed like most others in the market with the net weight reflecting the true weight of the prawns. On arrival they are then de-shelled locally and deveined to ensure the best quality prawn meat is left behind. They are a cold water premium shrimp species found in the southwest Atlantic from Brazil to Argentina.
You will recieve a vaccumed packed, 400gs of cleaned, peeled (tails removed) and ready to cook prawn tails.
