In Italy, the Gambero Rosso is not simply a prawn but an institution. Wild-caught from the deep, cold waters of the Mediterranean off the Italian coast, this legendary red shrimp holds its place among the most celebrated crustaceans in fine dining, revered from the fish markets of Sicily and Mazara del Vallo to the most prestigious raw bars and sushi counters. Its appearance is immediately arresting, a deep jewel-like red that intensifies from shell to flesh and announces the quality within.

The eating experience is unlike any other prawn: juicy, soft and yielding to the point of melting, with a flavour that is at once intensely sweet, richly marine and possessed of a complexity that lingers on the palate. It is best appreciated raw, simply dressed with fine olive oil and a pinch of sea salt, revealing its true character only when treated with restraint. It is equally magnificent lightly seared, served as premium crudo, or folded into the most refined pasta preparations.
