Red Tiger Prawn (Whole Fish 40 to 50 Count/Kg)

Red Tiger Prawn (often referring to wild-caught tiger prawns such as Penaeus esculentus or the Kuruma/Japanese tiger prawn Marsupenaeus japonicus) is a premium, wild marine prawn prized in global seafood markets.

• Appearance: Unlike the grey-black stripes of the Black Tiger prawn, it features distinct reddish-brown or pinkish tiger bands over a pale cream-to-golden shell. When cooked, the entire shell and tail turn a vibrant, bright red.

• Texture & Flavor: It has a firm, succulent bite with a naturally sweeter, richer, and more oceanic flavor profile compared to farmed prawns.

• Habitat: Fully marine; predominantly wild-caught along coastal shelves, coral reef platforms, and deeper offshore waters.

• Culinary Use: Highly favored for butterflying, charcoal grilling, garlic butter sauteing, and tempura, as well as rich curries where its sweet meat holds up well against bold spices.
