Large Carabinero Prawns, also known as Scarlet Shrimp or Cardinal Prawns, are a highly sought-after deep-sea prawn species from the Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea. Renowned for their jumbo size and striking bright red color, these prawns are appreciated for their robust, distinct flavor. The meat is mainly concentrated in the tail, but the cephalothoraxes (head and body) are not to be overlooked and are excellent for making clear and creamed soups. Carabineros, which translates to 'police' in Spanish, are named for the color of their shells, which resembles the uniforms of Spanish customs police. The red color does not change when cooked, making them a popular choice in professional kitchens worldwide.
