CARABINEROS / WILD RED PRAWNS

Sea House Frozen · Origin: Spain · Sizes: 5/7 – 9/12 – 10/15 – 20/30

Few ingredients stop a dining room in its tracks quite like Carabineros. Known as the Red Cardinal of the sea, these magnificent deep-water prawns are among the most coveted crustaceans in the world of fine dining — and one look at them explains why. Their shell is a deep, vivid crimson of extraordinary intensity, a colour so striking it seems almost impossible for a natural ingredient. Yet it is entirely natural — a direct reflection of the nutrient-rich deep-sea environment from which they are wild-caught off the Spnish Atlantic coast.

The flavour is every bit as bold as the appearance. Carabineros possess a richness and depth that is wholly their own — sweet, intensely marine, and almost coral-like in its complexity, with a juicy, firm flesh that holds up beautifully across grilling, roasting, pan-searing, or simply split and cooked over high heat with nothing more than olive oil and sea salt. Their heads are particularly prized — packed with intensely flavoured bisque-like matter that, when sucked or incorporated into a sauce, delivers a depth of flavour that is truly unforgettable.

Available across four sizes, from impressive to extraordinary.
