Wild raw head-on shell-on shrimp

The Penaeus monodon shrimp is a crustacean commonly known as shrimp, tropical shrimp or tiger shrimp.

It has a dark color and black stripes on the shell.
It is caught all year round in zone F.A.O. 34 (Central East Atlantic), using trawls.

Treatment with metabisulphite prevents the development of melanosis (blackening of the cuticle).
We sell it raw head-on shell-on.
Enjoy it in paella, on the barbecue or on the griddle.
