Additional Details

  • Farmed in the crystal lagoons of New Caledonia, these Blue Prawns bring an exotic flavor to your table that can only be found in Oceanic waters.

  • Because of ocean-friendly sustainability practices, Blue Prawns only make up .2% of global shrimp production. Experience something that you won’t find shelved at your local grocery store.

  • While rarely seen in stores, these Prawns are instantly recognizable for their bold blue shells–and easily remembered for their sweet, buttery flavor.

  • Each order is packed with dry ice so that it stays completely frozen while en route to your doorstep.

How To Prepare

  • To thaw, remove the Blue Prawns from their original packaging, place them in a plastic bag, and thaw them in the refrigerator for 6-8 hours.

  • To expedite the thawing process, place the prawns in a plastic bag and run it under cool water (never hot water). Learn more safe thawing tips here.

  • Once thawed, drain any liquid and pat them dry. Season both sides with your desired sauce or seasoning before heating.
