Khan Fresh and Frozen Shrimp Size 30-35 (Vannamei & Wild Gulf Shrimp)

Size 30-35 delivers an ideal equilibrium between premium plate aesthetics, culinary cook times, and portion budgeting. It showcases an imposing meaty silhouette in tempura and breaded preparations, resists thermal over-shrinkage in stews, and maintains stable cost-per-cover metrics for high-volume caterers.

Following automated sizing, shrimp transition to deveining stations. Carapaces are carefully peeled, and a precision 2mm longitudinal dorsal incision is made along the back. Vacuum extraction needles strip the intestinal sand vein cleanly, followed by an ozonated deep-cavity wash leaving pristine, chef-ready white meat.

Contrasting substandard market practices that adulterate cargo with up to 30% deceptive ice glaze, Khan frozen shrimp applies a calibrated 0% to 5% protective micro-mist glaze solely intended to prevent sublimation freezer burn. The tare weight declared on carton labels represents true drained net seafood mass post-thaw.

Place IQF shrimp in a culinary colander and run cold water (<10°C) gently over them for 3-5 minutes, dissolving the thin protective glaze without elevating core muscle temperatures. Promptly pat dry with heavy lint-free paper towels. Avoid warm baths, microwave defrosting, or prolonged ambient water soaking, which denatures protein matrices and results in mushy texture.

Size 30-35 shrimp cooks with exceptional rapidity. In a sizzling skillet or under direct flame broilers, cook time requires strictly 2 to 3 minutes—stopping as soon as the flesh turns opaque pink and curls into a gentle "C" shape. Overcooking extracts cellular water, rendering the protein tough and rubbery. In stews, fold shrimp in during the final 5 minutes of simmering.

Portion-packed into 500g or 1kg vacuum pouches, product is nested inside 5-ply die-cut corrugated master cartons coated with water-repellent paraffin wax, configured in 5kg or 10kg net weights. Palletized onto 100x120cm footprints, units are banded, thermal-shrunk, and linehauled in telematics-tracked reefers held at continuous -18°C.

International export consignments require a baseline 40ft high-cube reefer container (approx. 24 to 26 net metric tons). Consignments feature export multilingual carton lithography. Documentation packages comprise bilingual IVO Health Certificates, antibiotic-free laboratory COAs, ocean bills of lading, and Chamber of Commerce Certificates of Origin under FOB or CFR terms.
