Fresh Japanese Tiger Prawns

Large, boldly banded prawns with tiger-striped bodies and tails tipped in vivid blue, yellow and red. That colouring is natural, and it holds up beautifully once cooked — these are as much a visual centrepiece as they are a meal.

The meat is firm, dense and distinctly sweet, with a texture that stands up to high heat and stays succulent rather than shrinking away.

Why You'll Love It

• Premium size — generous, meaty tails with real presence on the plate.
• Firm, sweet flesh — holds its bite through grilling, boiling or frying.
• Striking colour — banded bodies and vividly tipped tails.
• Versatile — equally at home in a simple grill or an elaborate dish.

Cooking Notes

• Grill split and brushed with butter for a smoky char.
• Boil briefly and chill for cocktails and platters.
• Fry in a hot pan with garlic and chilli for a fast, punchy dish.

Storage

Keep refrigerated and cook within the window printed on the pack. Cook from chilled and avoid overcooking, which firms the flesh further.
