Our Store Manager's note on this one: "They say don't fix what's not broken, but we like to think of ourselves as explorers, for food. It was a Friday when we first did the tasting for this. 2 of our team members (including me) kept thinking about it over the weekend and had to get a pack each on Monday. That's when we knew we were willing to risk letting go of our past bestseller for this."

So what makes these prawns better? Unlike most frozen prawns in the market, these are live frozen, which means they are blast frozen while still alive, not dead. This is what makes them taste as good as when you order them live. On top of that, they are dry-packed and flash frozen once caught from the ocean to preserve their freshness.

They are so good that we supply them to Japanese restaurants here in Singapore. If that does not tell you something, we do not know what will.

These prawns are best cooked in boiling water, grilled, or fried, and they are stunning in steamboats and BBQs. Each pack contains approximately 8 to 12 pieces per KG depending on the size of the prawns.

For air-flown Japanese Kuruma Ebi, please drop us an email at enquiries@zairyo.sg for seasonal prices. They will not be this affordable.

How to Thaw
