A 1kg pack of peeled and deveined wild Argentinian red shrimp (Pleoticus muelleri) — the same cold-water Argentine red shrimp that’s prized in restaurants for its lobster-like sweetness and juicy, tender flesh. A genuine quality step up from the farmed vannamei and black tiger prawns that dominate UK supermarkets, with a deeper colour and a more intense flavour. Cooks in half the time of regular prawns — resist the urge to overdo them.
