My Favourite Foods

Just awesome in texture and flavour, I just love King Prawns.

Make no mistake there are many different varieties – small north atlantic prawns are common within sandwiches and salads, sometimes stir frys.

King prawns which are farmed, I find are not great.

Larger king prawns sometimes have a ‘muddy’ flavour depending on where they are caught.

One thing certain about king prawn – don’t freeze it.  Live prawns are the best and can be bought out of the tank in major cities.  As soon as prawns are frozen, they are typically ruined.

A prawn should have no fishy smell, if it does, it means it isn’t fresh and should be avoided.
