PACIFIC
WHITE SHRIMP
Litopenaeus vannamei
FIRM, SWEET, DELICATE, AND RICH IN MINERALS AND FLAVOR
Pacific white shrimp is a warm water species originating from the waters of Sonora, Mexico to northern Peru. Pacific whites have a robust flavor profile with a lobster-like richness – sweet but earthy, tender yet firm. Being fresh (and yes, we mean never frozen), the shrimp’s pure flavors are expressed. When it comes to buying fresh shrimp, lucky locals living near the Gulf and Southern Atlantic coast might find some but 99.9% is frozen and shipped around the country. That is until now- Iowan’s too can experience the transformative flavor of fresh shrimp.
Fresh Pacific white shrimp’s versatile flavor can work in a variety of dishes and cooking. Our shrimp our head-on with shells, but trust us, it is worth getting a little bit outside of your comfort zone for the maximum flavor that comes with cooking them whole. For appreciating the rich and subtle flavors, a quick pan sauté will do the trick with a drizzle of a grassy extra virgin olive oil, a tight squeeze of lemon, and a dash of freshly cracked peppercorns. A company favorite is a classic hearty shrimp boil with corn and potatoes. However you decide to get your shrimp on, you can have trust that Midland Shrimp the best shrimp to buy for sustainability and flavor.
