Cold-water prawns are a true delicacy, with their bright-pink colour and firm, juicy texture. From their origin in the ice-cold and clear waters surrounding Greenland, the cold-water prawns grow slowly until reaching full size at 6 years. Due to the slow growth flavours and texture are given time to fully develop. The sweet and savoury flavours combined with a juicy bite offer a full flavour experience. The prawns are high in protein and low in fat, making them a healthy choice.
Shell-on cold-water prawns are cooked and frozen at sea within 3 hours from catch. The fast processing locks in the natural flavour and the crisp, moist texture. Gentle thawing in the refrigerator best preserves the ultimate freshness of the prawns.
Ingredients
Prawns (crustaceans) (Pandalus borealis), salt, water (protective glaze). May contain traces of fish.
Serving
The cold-water prawns are uniform in size with a consistent quality. Their fresh taste is ideally complimented by mild, fatty or acidic flavours. The prawns lend themselves well to cold dishes including salads, sandwiches and appetizers or as toppings.
