The prestige of live seafood for exceptional delicacy.
Live langoustines, selected by Le Delas' Atelier Marée, are one of the most delicate gems of seafood cuisine. This ‘medium' size 10/15 (indicating the number of pieces per kilo) offers generous specimens, perfect for a sophisticated presentation on your menus. The guarantee of a live product ensures a flesh texture of incomparable tenderness and a subtly sweet flavour that no other preservation method can match. Packaged in 4 kg boxes, these langoustines allow chefs to work with a product of absolute freshness, sourced directly from the most discerning fish markets.
Professional uses, preparation and storage:
► Gastronomic applications: Live langoustines lend themselves to the most refined preparations. They are sublime simply grilled on a hot griddle with a dash of clarified butter, or poached very briefly in a light court-bouillon to preserve their pearly sheen. Chefs also appreciate them prepared as carpaccio or tartare to enhance their natural sweetness. The heads and shells, with their intense aroma, are essential ingredients for making bisques, Thermidor sauces or shellfish butters of remarkable intensity.
► Preparation: To bring out the best in this product, cooking must be brief and precise to prevent the flesh from becoming mushy. A ‘pearly' finish is recommended to retain all the tenderness and moisture of the flesh. Care must be taken when handling to preserve the integrity of the claws and antennae, ensuring a spectacular presentation on the plate.
► Storage: An ultra-fresh live product that must be stored in a refrigerated environment, between +2°C and +5°C, ideally under a damp cloth to maintain optimal humidity. To ensure a perfect taste experience, it is advisable to prepare them on the day of receipt.
