Review: Very clean! No vein pieces. - These are excellent! Used them in a shrimp cocktail and also did a pan fry. Some of the cleanest, best shrimp I’ve had.
Review: Super Tender and Sweet - Great Texture - I don't think I'd ever had Argentinian shrimp. The seller had provided a small sample with a summer order. They were great. So got some more for the holidays and a family gathering. Makes a perfect shrimp cocktail. Restaurant quality in taste and presentation. Important to follow the directions - these cook faster than black tiger shrimp. I think my husband settled on just under 4 minutes for a batch. He cooked just a couple to practice. Apparently something with the deep water nature of this type of shrimp. They are supposed to get chewy if cooked too long (e.g. don't use in gumbo or soup). We popped them in ice water to stop the cooking. Several of them had lost their tails in the bag (frozen). Not sure if that is typical.

## Features

- SWEET, LOBSTER-LIKE FLAVOR. These wild-caught red Argentinian shrimp come from the deep, cold, nutrient-rich waters of South America, giving them a sweet, fresh taste, vibrant red color, and firm texture. Often compared to lobster, they’re naturally high in protein, low in fat, and generously sized.
- EASY, GOURMET MEAL IN MINUTES. Perfect for a quick, restaurant-quality meal, these tail-on shrimp arrive cleaned, peeled, deveined, and individually quick frozen in a protective ice glaze. Simply thaw overnight in the refrigerator, season lightly (we recommend lemon and garlic), and sauté.
- CAREFUL! DON’T OVERCOOK. Your shrimp take only 2-3 minutes to cook to perfection. While we recommend sautéing, you can also boil — just plunge them in ice water afterward to stop the cooking process. Watch for the color to change from translucent to opaque to avoid overcooking
- SERVING SIZE GUIDE. Each 4-pound bag includes 64-80 tail-on shrimp. Plan on 8-10 shrimp per person as an entrée and 4-5 shrimp per person as an appetizer.
