The Best Way To Enjoy Prawns

We all have our favourite types of luxury foods, and nothing quite matches a dish containing something you truly love the taste of and don’t get to eat every day. For many, perhaps due to the associations with holidays and sunshine, seafood is a top choice in the luxury food department. Exquisite fruits of the sea can be hard to acquire, but are so rewarding when they’re cooked to perfection and complemented by other fantastic food products.

Additionally and somewhat famously, oysters are widely thought of as being an aphrodisiac.

It's all about Prawns!

We’re really excited about the recent launch of the speciality prawn section on our website. Working with our dedicated supplier we have put together a stonking selection of prawns, shrimp and langoustine, even if we do say so ourselves! And better still, there’s more to come so watch this space.

In the meantime though take a look below for a glimpse at some of the beauties we now have on offer. Each of them different from the next and all of them wild, sustainably fished and top quality. Why frozen? When the prawns are flash frozen at sea within hours of being caught, they have no chance to degrade in quality and freshness. So when you defrost and cook them at home that freshness remains and they taste as good as if they’d just been caught.
