Range & Habitat
New Caledonian Salt Prawns are raised in a natural habitat with over five times the space of generic shrimp farms. With no antibiotics, pesticides, GMOs, or growth accelerators given to the shrimp at any time, their unparalleled flavor and texture speak for themselves. Their brilliant blue color comes from the plankton they eat in the natural ocean environment in which they are grown. New Caledonian Salt Prawns have only one growing season per year, nine months, during which their lifecycle can be closely watched by the native people of the region who work with and are managed by the Societe de Prodocteurs Aquacole Caledoniens. "SOPAC" is the governing body that manages strict quality and sustainability standards for New Caledonian Blue Prawns, ensuring reliability and quality for all buyers of the product internationally. Popularly consumed raw as a sashimi delicacy in Japan, New Caledonian Salt Prawns are world-renowned. They are deep frozen to -18C within hours of harvest to preserve their color, texture, and flavor, and we are proud to offer such an exclusive, high-end product to our customers!

Like many Rockfish, The Red Rock Cod has a phenomenal moisture that translates to a rich and succulent texture. The raw light pink flesh cooks to a brilliant paper white. The Rock Cod has a blank slate canvas that accepts many applications. The light flavor is a vehicle for fresh Spring and Summer herbs, fruits and vegetables. Light Butter Sauces, Vinaigrettes, Gastriques and Purees are perfect for this Hand Line delicacy. Saute, Broil, Ceviche, Sous Vide.
Sweet, Buttery, Earthy
Red crawfish dominate most farms, especially in south Louisiana and in most places in the Atchafalaya Basin. White crawfish are slightly more plentiful on north Louisiana farms and in Mississippi River overflow swamps. Most crawfish are harvested between December and June, but March, April and May are the peak months in Louisiana.
