Enjoy Fresh & Tasty Tiger Shrimps from NTUC FairPrice

In the middle of the afternoon, have you ever found yourself wanting some nice fresh Tiger shrimps to prepare for dinner… but you can’t decide where to get them?

Fresh tasty Tiger shrimps from FairPrice.

Fresh & tasty Tiger shrimps from FairPrice… waiting to be cooked.

If that’s the case, head down to NTUC FairPrice’s Vietnam Fair – which started last Friday and ends on the 18th of June. That is because the Okeanoss Frozen Black Tiger Shrimps are now available there. These Tiger Shrimps are frozen but they capture the freshness of newly caught ones.

Bred and processed in Vietnam – one of the largest prawn producing countries in the world – the Black Tiger Shrimp has higher moisture content compared to other types of shrimps. As a result, this allows for a shorter cooking time.

Tasting the shrimps

Our family recently prepared some of these shrimps for dinner, served with noodles and green leafy vegetables. On trying the shellfish, I will say that they are moist and the shrimps have a mild, gentle flavour and do not overpower the other ingredients in your meal. At the same time they are delicious and create just enough sensation on your taste buds.

I would have enjoyed a little more firmer texture though, but otherwise, these are quite succulent and have a nice fresh taste.

FairPrice Jasmine Rice

Besides the shrimps, FairPrice is also offering at the Fair, FairPrice Jasmine Rice – which contains plenty of amino acids that are useful for building and maintaining muscle tissue, as well as making up antibodies, enzymes and hormones in the human body. And the rice has a subtle sweetness and alluring fragrance too.

Other products from the Vietnam Fair

Here are some of the other products that are available at the FairPrice Vietnam Fair. However if you wish to try out these products, do hurry because they are only available at FairPrice throughout the duration of the Fair.

    I bought four packs of Okeanoss frozen Large prawns without shell from NTUC. Today when I was washing the prawns n drained dry it, to my horror the water is BLUE in colour!!! I continued washing and the prawns which was grey turn lighter n lighter in colour. I am calling NTUC tomorrow to have them investigate what solutions they put on it. My advice to everyone is to use a white bowl to wash the prawns n see if the water has any colour.
