Flavor Profile

Our premier Wild Mexican Shrimp are characterized by their balanced shrimp flavor and firm texture. Upon cooking, Mexican shrimp retains its crisp texture and remains uniform in size. Enjoy their refined, sweet shrimp flavor that isn’t too fishy or bland. We highly recommend these shrimp when you plan on eating shrimp with little seasoning (naked) or cold.

Shrimp Sizing

The numbers attached to the shrimp description are called the “count,” which represents the number of individual shrimp that make up one pound. For instance, “16-20” means there are between 16 and 20 shrimp in one pound. Most of our shrimp comes in two pound bags, so there would be 36 to 40 shrimp in a two pound bag.

If a single number is accompanied by a U, there are “under” that many shrimp in one pound. I.e. U15 shrimp have under 15 shrimp per pound. They can also be listed as a 13-15 count.

Finally, as the numbers decrease, the size of the shrimp increase. Our 350-500 shrimp are tiny salad shrimp and the 2-4 shrimp are our jumbos. Large shrimp are often referred to as Prawns.

Cooking Tips & Recipes

Wild Mexican Shrimp are GREAT for shrimp cocktail– no limp cooked shrimp here!

Thaw shrimp under cold running water for 8-10 minutes. Bring a pot of salted water to boil. Add shrimp, cover and turn off the heat. “Steep” shrimp for 3-5 minutes, or until shrimp are no longer translucent. Immediately transfer shrimp to an ice bath to stop cooking. Chill for 30 minutes and serve.
