The langoustine is a big prawn with an extra fine taste. It's also known as the Dublin Bay Prawn or the Norway Lobster, and in its most popular role, as scampi - that's what we call the meat in the tail once it has been peeled. If you are looking for the peeled and cleaned version of these, peeled scampi can be found here. But the langoustine is a very beautiful fish and deserves to be admired before it's eaten. These Scottish langoustines are raw, we source ours from a supplier up in Aberdeen. For their journey, they are packed in a box with a layer of water frozen around the langoustine. This is done intentionally to protect the fragile little creatures from rattling around in the box and breaking. If you don't want to use them all at once, you can run under cold water until they wiggle away, wrap up the portion you want to save and pop into the freezer.  All packs are 700g each, choosing between S-XL size refers to the actual size of the langoustine. Increase the size to XL and you will receive fewer pieces, but some very large juicy langoustines
