Shrimp is a type of shellfish that is enjoyed for its delicate flavor and tender texture. It has a slightly sweet taste with a slightly salty flavor that is unique to shellfish. The flavor of shrimp can vary depending on the species and how it is prepared.

Some peeled king prawn producers have as many as 12 size grades, ranging from “U5” where U means “under” (U5s are very large, very rare and very expensive) to 80-100.

Shrimp are low in calories, high in protein. Shrimp also have a lot of protein and are particularly good for you when served with healthy carbs, like brown rice or vegetables.

Pink shrimp are some of the tastiest shrimp you can find, mild and sweet without the distinctive ammonia taste some of the brown and white shrimp have. Just don't expect a vibrantly hued patch of shrimp at the market - pink shrimp can range from white to gray in color.

U5 graded prawns means they are very large in size. Approximately eight large prawns per pack. Simply defrost then cook until pink in colour, then add into pasta dishes, curries, seafood dishes, or served with garlic butter and crusty bread.

When you see a “U” in the count, it means that there are “under” that number of shrimp in a pound.
