Description

Argentinian Red Prawns Medium is 2kg of medium Argentinian Red prawns from Lanzal at 20 to 30 pieces per kilo — the same exceptional wild Patagonian quality in a smaller, more versatile size. Argentinian Red prawns medium offer the same flavour at a more practical serving count. As a result, this size suits both simple grilling and incorporation into pasta, rice and sharing plates. Furthermore, the 20 to 30 per kilo size gives two to three prawns per person as a tapas portion, which is exactly right for a sharing table. In particular, Lanzal is the benchmark Argentine supplier for consistent quality and cold chain integrity.

About Argentinian Red Prawns Medium

We source our prawns and langoustine from specialist suppliers across the Atlantic, Mediterranean and Pacific. In particular, we select every variety for its provenance, flavour profile and the quality standards of the fishery or farm. As a result, our prawn range spans everything from everyday wild Atlantic prawns to some of the rarest and most celebrated shellfish in the world. Furthermore, prawn and langoustine quality varies enormously by species, origin and handling. However, the difference between correctly handled premium shellfish and a poorly sourced alternative is immediately apparent in the eating. In particular, species like Carabineros, Gambero Rosso and Obsiblue are in a completely different class from commodity prawns. Additionally, we work with suppliers who share our insistence on correct cold chain from catch to delivery. That commitment to genuine quality drives every sourcing decision we make. That is why this product from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning cooks.

Why Choose Argentinian Red Prawns Medium From Us

Cooking prawns and langoustine well requires very little technique but a clear understanding of heat and timing. In contrast to meat cookery, prawns need only seconds over high heat. As a result, the single most important rule is never to overcook. Furthermore, a premium prawn like Carabineros or Gambero Rosso needs nothing more than a hot pan, good olive oil and sea salt. However, flavour-forward varieties like Argentinian Red also suit raw preparations where their sweetness shines. In particular, langoustine deserve the gentlest possible treatment – a brief split and grill or a few minutes in a court bouillon. Moreover, defrosting correctly matters as much as cooking correctly. Additionally, always defrost premium shellfish overnight in the fridge rather than under running water, which leaches flavour. That patience in defrosting pays immediate dividends in the eating.

How to Cook Argentinian Red Prawns Medium

To get the very best from it:

  • Defrost overnight in the fridge and cook within 24 hours.
  • Pan-fry shell-on in very hot olive oil for 60 to 90 seconds per side until caramelised.
  • Furthermore, Argentinian Red prawns medium suit a sharing tapas board alongside other seafood with aioli and good bread.
  • Additionally, peel after cooking and toss through pasta with olive oil, garlic and parsley for a quick and outstanding dish.

Perfect Pairings

This product pairs beautifully with:

  • Good olive oil, garlic and dried chilli for gambas al ajillo
  • Pasta, olive oil and parsley for a quick prawn pasta
  • Aioli and good bread for a sharing tapas preparation
  • A glass of chilled Albarino, Txakoli or a Manzanilla alongside

Storage: Keep frozen and defrost in the fridge overnight before use. Furthermore, once defrosted use within 24 hours and do not refreeze. However, for the finest result always defrost slowly in the fridge rather than under running water, which draws out flavour. Delivered frozen and ready to defrost and cook.

However you cook it, this product brings a flavour and quality that only carefully sourced shellfish can deliver. Moreover, the finest prawns and langoustine always reward the simplest preparations.
