Characteristics
Tiger Shrimp is a consistent way to add shrimp to your menu. They cook up quickly and are tasty, with a mild flavor and a very firm texture. We offer a variety of options – shell on or off, tail on or off, raw or cooked, and a wide range of sizes… Your Santa Monica Seafood Sales Representative is always available to go over all the types of Tiger Shrimp we carry.
For Your Menu
Sauté, steam, bake, broil, or grill Tiger Shrimp – they are super versatile. Add them to soups and stews, a tasty stir fry, or a pasta dish.
For Your Waitstaff
Not only is Tiger Shrimp delicious, but it’s also a good source of selenium, calcium, and iodine!
For Your Retail Display
When displaying Tiger Shrimp in your case, always make sure it’s on top of a nice mound of crushed ice – some visual height always helps make your case look tempting.
