Salt and Pepper Mantis Shrimp
$108.00
Unit price
$54.00/kg
A banquet-table delicacy wild-caught in tropical and subtropical coastal water, chosen for size, vitality and meat yield, then finished with a fragrant spiced crust.
Why It Stands Out
- Texture somewhere between lobster and crab, firm and almost crunchy
- Meat comes away in neat segments in a single pull
- Large specimens yield portions that rival lobster
- About 20g of lean protein per 100g, with phosphorus, copper and selenium
How to Serve
Pan-sear or deep-fry with a blend of sea salt, Sichuan peppercorn, garlic and chilli for a savoury crust that lets the sweetness through. Steaming with ginger and scallion, or grilling over charcoal with butter and herbs, are just as good.
Storage
Keep refrigerated at 0-4°C and eat within a day if raw, or two to three days once cooked. Freeze at -18°C for up to three months.
