About this item
Translucent shells shading from pale green to deep orange are the first sign of how fresh these are. The tail meat is plump and sweet, closer in texture to lobster than to shrimp, and it stays tender when steamed, grilled or turned quickly through a hot pan. Left whole and unpeeled they hold their shape and their juices, and they plate as something a little out of the ordinary.
