Ocado MSC Cooked Cold Water Prawns.
Cooked & Peeled.
These small, sweet, succulent cold water prawns are a versatile and tasty
protein source. Their size makes them the perfect addition to your favourite
meals including sandwiches, tacos, pasta and salads. Although cold water prawns
are smaller in size than warm water prawns, they pack an intense flavour and
juicy texture into every dish.
If you're looking for prawns that add a more satisfying bite to your cooked
dishes, search for 'Ocado King Prawns'.
Unlike most warm water prawns (such as king prawns), cold water prawns are
wild-caught rather than farmed. All Ocado own brand cold water prawns are
sustainably caught in the North West and North East Atlantic and are Marine
Stewardship Council (MSC) certified.
The blue MSC ecolabel ensures that these prawns have been caught from a
well-managed fishery that has been independently certified to the MSC's
science-based standard for sustainable fishing. These fisheries use a mix of
cutting edge science and innovation to map out and understand the seabed in more
detail, in an effort to better protect our vulnerable marine environment and
ecosystems.
These fisheries also have low bycatch levels using a variety of methods
including:
* Monitoring the behaviour of the prawns - they often aggregate in deep waters
in fjords to avoid predators
* Specialised equipment - Using sorting grids allows the escapement of bigger
fish through the top hole, and of smaller shrimp through the second grid on the
bottom.
