Pacific Seafood Peeled Tail-On Shrimp
What it is
This product features pre-cooked, peeled shrimp with the tail still attached. The shrimp are flash-frozen to preserve their freshness and texture. They are sourced from the ocean and processed to be ready for immediate use in various dishes. The tail-on presentation adds visual appeal and can serve as a natural handle for appetizers.
How people cook with it
These convenient shrimp are perfect for quick meals and elegant appetizers. They can be added to a wide range of hot or cold dishes.
- Shrimp scampi
- Shrimp cocktail
- Shrimp pasta dishes
- Shrimp salads
To prepare, simply thaw the shrimp under cold running water or in the refrigerator. Once thawed, they are ready to be incorporated into your favorite recipes. For hot dishes, add them towards the end of cooking to prevent overcooking, as they are already cooked. They can be sautéed, baked, or added to simmering sauces. For cold preparations like salads or appetizers, ensure they are fully thawed and chilled before serving.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike raw shrimp, these are pre-cooked, significantly reducing preparation time. The tail-on feature distinguishes them from fully peeled shrimp, offering a more refined presentation for certain dishes and making them easier to handle when serving as appetizers.

How to keep the rest
