A 1kg box of wild whole prawns at the premium 8/10 grade — 8 to 10 large prawns per pack at roughly 100g each. Frozen at sea off the African coast, with barely any protective glaze (honest weight, not gross-weight tricks). Bigger than the picture suggests. The right prawns for serious garlic-butter butterfly preparations and BBQ centrepieces.
