This well-known shrimp is cultivated in seawater in Southeast Asia in an extensive or semi-intensive manner. The shellfish is recognizable by the dark color with blue/gray stripes on the tail. When fried or boiled, the prawn turns orange-pink. The meat is firm and crunchy in texture. For these headless shrimps, the back is cut so they are easy to peel after preparation. These shrimps are weighed 'real count' and come in 8 - 12 pieces per English pound (454 grams).
