Extra Large Carabineros Prawns, 5/7 count Carabineros, also known as Carabineros prawns, Scarlet Shrimp, Cardinal Prawns, or Crevette Imperiale, are large deep-sea prawns from the Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea. Renowned for their jumbo size and striking bright red color, these prawns are a favorite in professional kitchens worldwide. The name Carabineros translates to 'police' in Spanish, possibly due to the prawns' shell color resembling police uniforms. Their red color does not change when cooked, unlike lobster shells. Carabineros have a more distinct and robust flavor than other shrimps or langoustines, and their large size makes them a desirable choice. The meat is mainly concentrated in the tail, but the cephalothoraxes (head and body) are not to be overlooked. They are excellent for making clear and creamed soups.
