These wild-caught sidestripe shrimp from Effing Seafoods are medium-sized and sushi-grade. Their dedication to sourcing sustainably harvested seafood is one of the many reasons we partner with companies like Effing Seafood. Our favourite thing about sidestripe shrimp? When cooked, they're tender, sweet, and delicious. NOTE: At certain times of year, shrimp and prawns may contain roe along their bellies. Roe is considered a delicacy in many cuisines, and is perfectly safe for consumption. Not your taste? It can be rinsed away in the sink!

COOKING TIP: Sidestripe shrimp are a great size for grilling on skewers. Keep the shell on so that the meat doesn't get overcooked. A couple minutes will do the trick! You'll know they're ready when they turn opaque and pink.
