Our Frozen Raw Black Tiger Headless Easy Peel (Penaeus monodon) — headless with an easy-peel back cut for faster kitchen handling — is proudly sourced and processed under India’s MPEDA-regulated export framework. This product is engineered for consistent quality, full traceability, and culinary versatility, whether you are a retail distributor, a foodservice operator, or a specialty seafood importer.
Origin & Sustainable Farming
Primarily sourced from the rich estuarine ecosystems of West Bengal, coastal Odisha and Andhra Pradesh, our Black Tiger shrimp is farmed under MPEDA-regulated biosecurity protocols in extensive and semi-intensive brackish-water ponds that provide the space this larger-bodied species needs to reach its full, prized size.
Harvesting & Quality Control
To maintain the premium structural integrity of this luxury seafood item we adhere to strict quality control protocols from water to dock: Selective Harvesting at optimal tidal cycles using non-invasive traditional traps and nets to prevent bruising or shell cracking; Immediate Cryo-Chilling in a sub-zero ice slurry to lock in the firm texture and protect the shell pigments; and Artisanal Grading, with each shrimp hand-sorted by size to ensure impeccable uniformity across export batches before individual quick freezing.
Culinary Characteristics & Flavor Profile
Flavor: Bold, sweet, and distinctly earthy, with a rich savory profile that stands up well to heavy seasoning, garlic, and smoke.
Texture: Exceptionally firm, meaty, and dense, offering a satisfying, crisp “snap” that retains its juices beautifully.
Appearance: Raw shells exhibit charcoal and tiger-stripe banding; when cooked, the meat turns a brilliant coral-red with bright white flesh.
