Fair-Trade Wild Blue Shrimp
Wild blue shrimp have a succulent flavour and firm texture when cooked. Highly versatile, these shrimp can be pan fried, stir fried, boiled, battered, the options are endless! Did you know wild blue shrimp are the only Fair Trade certified shrimp in the world? Caught using day-boats called pangas - small vessels using a technique that uses the wind and tide to drift a highly selective net called suripera. This technique has the lowest bycatch and fuel consumption per pound in the world. They are all natural and chemical free. Wild blue shrimp are headless raw tails that have been deveined by hand and the back of the shell has been cut down it’s length to make them easy to peel. They are packed 21 to 25 shrimp per bag. This is just one of many reasons we partner with amazing companies like Organic Ocean.
COOKING TIP: Shrimp are a great size for sautéing. 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.
