Nothing makes you feel like the sun has come out quite like a zesty plate of seafood. However, due to a range of issues, including weather conditions, supply and consistent good quality can sometime be a challenge. That’s where Seafrost’s premium snap-frozen seafood really comes to the fore; with each seafood item processed at source to lock in flavour, putting your best dish forward is easy, reliable and quick.
Preparing seafood can also be a drain on your resources; filleting, tenderising, crumbing and seasoning all takes time and skill. Having all this done for you so all you need to do is defrost and cook, means customers get their favourite spring dishes delivered on time – meanwhile you’ve made everybody happy, and saved on resources in the process.
Variety is the spice…
A really good dish is one where your seafood is the hero. Cooked to perfection, with complementary flavours like citrus, spices, herbs and butters, seafood works in all kinds of situations. Canapés, amuse bouche, entrées, side dishes, as the hero in a main course, or as part of a sharing platter or surf and turf plate, fish and seafood have a place in virtually every hospitality setting.
Seafood loves a companion. Seafrost prawns, scallops and squid served with a fresh spring salad brings out the sunshine in everyone, while Italian staples like risotto and pasta are a sensational base for delicate flavours. Add a little chilli and some sweetness for a variety of delicious Asian dishes, or add tomatoes and olives for a taste of the Mediterranean.
And of course, it’s not just the flavours or the adjacent ingredients that bring out the best in your seafood; how you cook it means you have more variety of options than ever. Whether you’re searing, frying, grilling, baking, roasting or barbecuing, your choice of equipment makes all the difference to the end result.
Quick to thaw, with no prep involved, they puff up when quickly seared. Serve with a lime infused mascarpone, cucumber salad, chilli, dill and a glorious green goddess oil to finish.
All the work’s been done here for you! A quick fry from frozen transforms this tender squid into crunchy golden spirals. Just add limes for squeezing, fresh chilli, herbs and a dipping sauce or two. They make a great quick entrée, pub/café style snack or add-on side.
These sweet juicy prawns are pre-prepped with just the showcase tail left on, leaving sweet juicy plump flesh. Simply season and add herbs or seeds and sear, before serving on a zesty salad with a flavourful dressing.
Quick Tip
Thaw your Vannamei prawns quickly by placing in a colander and running under cold water for 5-10 minutes. Keep in iced water until ready to use and drain before cooking.
