Cooked, peeled king prawn tails that are ready to eat the moment they've defrosted, which makes them the most useful bag in the freezer.
- One 250g pack, about 20 prawn tails
- Defrost and eat: no cooking needed
- Enough prawn cocktail for four as a starter
These are black tiger prawns, far bigger and firmer than cold water prawns. Add a little mayonnaise and you're done. They're the ones people take on picnics, because they defrost in the cool bag on the way.
When you compare prices, check two things: the size of the prawn and the glaze (the coat of ice on each one). Our weights exclude the glaze, and we always buy the largest size available.
One honest piece of advice: if you're going to put them in a hot sauce, buy raw instead. A cooked prawn cooked a second time goes rubbery, and our XXL raw peeled king prawns exist for exactly that job.
Defrosting and serving
Defrost overnight in the fridge, or in a sealed bag in cold water for about 30 minutes. Pat dry before dressing. If you do want them warm, toss them through a hot dish for the last 30 seconds only.
Questions
Are they cooked?
Yes, cooked and peeled. Defrost and eat.
How many are in a pack?
About 20 in 250g.
Can I cook with them?
Only to warm through. For curries, stir fries and pasta, raw prawns are better.
What's the difference from your North Atlantic prawns?
Size. The North Atlantic prawns are small, sweet cold water prawns, the classic for sandwiches.
What are the allergens?
Crustaceans. Ingredients: prawns, water, salt, stabilisers (E451, E452, E339).
