Small in stature but extraordinary in flavour, the rock shrimp is one of the American seafood industry’s best-kept secrets, a crustacean that punches far above its size and delivers a taste that regularly draws comparisons to lobster. Sourced from the warm coastal waters of the USA, where rock shrimp have been a celebrated regional delicacy for decades, Sea House brings this distinctive ingredient to professional kitchens seeking something genuinely different.

The rock shrimp takes its name from the unusually hard, stony shell that encases it, a shell so thick and rigid that it long made commercial processing a challenge, and one that contributes directly to the density and sweetness of the meat within. Once shelled, the flesh is plump, firm and richly flavoured, carrying that characteristic lobster-like sweetness with a slightly more robust, oceanic depth. Delivered peeled and ready to cook, rock shrimp excels butter-sauteed with garlic in the classic Florida style, tempura-fried, tossed through pasta, or used as a premium garnish.
