Fresh Tiger Shrimps Medium are highly sought-after crustaceans known for their striped shells and rich flavor. Known in Arabic as جمبري تايجر متوسط, they belong to the Penaeidae family with the scientific name Penaeus monodon. These shrimp thrive in warm marine and brackish waters, commonly sourced from FAO fishing areas 51 and 57 through controlled aquaculture farming.
Tiger shrimp have a mildly sweet flavor with a firm, meaty texture that holds well during cooking. Their shells display distinct dark stripes, while freshness is indicated by a clean smell and firm flesh. Popular in UAE cuisine, they are widely used in grilled platters, biryani, seafood Machboos, and Sayadieh. Their standout advantage is their size, flavor, and versatility in cooking.

FAQs
Are medium tiger shrimps better fresh or frozen?
Both fresh-chilled and properly frozen prawns can be excellent. Fresh-chilled offers the most immediate texture contrast and aroma when eaten soon after delivery; top-tier flash-freezing preserves texture and nutrition when chilled supply is limited. The deciding factor is how well the cold-chain was maintained — DIORfreshfish documents temperature logs and packaging to protect quality.
How do I keep the texture tender when cooking?
High heat, short cook times are key. Sear, grill or sauté quickly and remove when the flesh becomes opaque and slightly springy. For marinated dishes, acid (lemon/tamarind) should be added sparingly — prolonged acidic exposure can firm proteins excessively.
What safety checks are performed before dispatch?
Every batch is checked for off-odour, shell integrity and correct temperature. We follow food-grade sanitation, record cold-room logs and inspect supplier certificates to ensure halal compliance and traceability.
