All-Natural Peeled Raw Shrimp - Preservative and Nasty Free (1kg)
Choose options
1kg (2.2lbs) of frozen pre-peeled, raw shrimp, safe and responsibly farmed in a natural environment - free of nasties and preservatives. The medium size shrimp bag contains around 50 shrimp, the big size shrimp bag contains about 80 shrimp. Both are easy to use in a variety of dishes such as stir-fries, soups, deep-fried dishes, and more. The images show 1/4 of the actual quantity in the bag. As they're already peeled and individually flash frozen for convenience, you can simply take out and defrost just the right amount you need at any time.
These pre-peeled shrimp are responsibly farmed in low-density aquaculture farms in India. What do we mean by nasty-free? They are fed a diet free of antibiotics or synthetic antimicrobials. Additionally, no phosphates or pH adjusting agents are used to retain water, making these free of MRAs (moisture retention agents) and super natural. For freshness, the shrimp are individually frozen and have thin ice around them as seen in the images.
Why responsibly farmed is sometimes better than wild-caught
Wild-caught, in many cases, endangers the fish population and the environment. Shrimp, in particular, are heavily overfished. Responsibly farmed shrimp have a very low ecological footprint. Irresponsible farming often uses antibiotics to prevent the spread of diseases due to inadequate farming methods. Our shrimps are as natural as can be and do not need to be treated with antibiotics because of their natural and low-density environment.
