ECUAGOLD Head-On Shell-On Frozen Raw Shrimp (30/40) – 1kg
Experience the authentic taste of the ocean with ECUAGOLD. Sourced from the pristine waters of Ecuador, these premium white shrimps (Litopenaeus vannamei) are frozen at the peak of freshness to preserve their firm texture and naturally sweet, delicate flavor.
Leaving the head and shell on (HOSO) is the preferred choice of chefs, as it locks in moisture during cooking and provides a rich base for gourmet sauces and stocks.
