Live B.C. Spot Prawn

Format:1 lb

The wild B.C. spot prawn is the largest of the seven commercial species of shrimp found on the west coast of Canada with females often exceeding nine inches in length. They are most recognizable for their reddish brown colour (which turns bright pink when cooked), defining white spots on the tail and white horizontal bars on the carapace. Their luscious sweet taste and firm texture make them a favorite of chefs around the world. 

Please note that the shrimp are alive when packing and shipping, we cannot guarantee that they are alive when receiving the order. Freshness for raw consumption is guaranteed 24 hours after receipt of your order.
