Description
About Prawn Skewers:
For our prawn skewers, we use the Vannamei shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei), also known as the white-legged shrimp. Our Vannamei shrimp are intensively farmed in Vietnam and India. From there, they are delivered fresh year-round, after which we freeze them at extremely low temperatures using special freezing methods. This guarantees the best quality, always and everywhere.

Taste & Quality
Vannamei prawns have a subtle, slightly sweet flavor and a tender texture. Thanks to their firm texture, they stay perfectly on the skewer and retain their juiciness during grilling. The skewers are ideal for a quick and flavorful meal and lend themselves perfectly to various marinades and spice combinations.
Preparation
Our prawn skewers are ready to prepare. Add your own marinade and start grilling. Of course, you can also fry them in a pan with a splash of olive oil for a crispy exterior. In the oven, they are ready within 10 minutes at 200°C. Just be careful not to fry or grill the prawns for too long to prevent them from becoming tough.
Certifications & Sustainability
Certified shrimp are supplied upon request. At Golden Ocean, you can choose ASC-certified Vannamei scampi. This certification stands for responsible farming. Our frozen scampi are of top quality: firm, glossy, and free from discoloration.
Thawing tip
: Slow thawing: Place the prawn skewers in a covered bowl in the refrigerator and let them thaw for 8-12 hours. For a faster thawing, place them outside the refrigerator in a bowl of cold water. Change the water every ten minutes until thawed. Do not use a microwave or hot water!
Packaging
Our Vannamei prawn skewers are available in various packaging, suitable for catering, retail and wholesale.
