Black Tiger

Frozen Black Tiger Prawns, 1kg box = 13/15 prawns.

Striped like its jungle namesake, the Black Tiger Prawn (Shrimp) is available year-round and is one of Asia’s major aquaculture products. Most tiger prawn/shrimp is farmed, though a significant amount is harvested from the wild by trawlers working mud bottoms from very shallow water to depths beyond 90 metres (300 feet). The largest of 300 commercially available species worldwide, tigers can grow to 330mm (13 inches) but harvest size averages 230mm-280mm (9 to 11 inches).
