Mariscos Apolo has been offering the best frozen seafood at Christmas since 1963. With an experienced team strongly committed to their profession, they offer and distribute products throughout Andalusia and Spain.
Seafood for Christmas
The star product of Christmas, seafood, has a tremendous variety of flavors and textures. Today we make a small review of some of the seafood that are most demanded and others that you can not miss.
Crab breast-mouth to taste
This is the name given to the parts of the crab deliciously cut in the middle to enjoy a select meat. The crab breast, for example, is highly appreciated for its white and soft meat, while the mouth stands out for its high vitamin content and low fat content. They are presented in 700 gram boxes and should be stored at a temperature of -18 ºC. Once defrosted, they are intended to be consumed immediately.
To the delicious langoustine!
With regard to langoustine, it is good to know that it is a low-calorie food with a high protein content. It is also rich in phosphorus, calcium, potassium and iodine. They are prepared cooked, although they are also perfect with rice. In fact, the boxes of these seafood for Christmas contain inside a rich recipe to be accompanied with romesco sauce that you can try this Christmas, and really easy to make.
Cooked shrimps and prawns
Cooked shrimps and prawns continue to be the star dish at celebrations. Prawns, prepared grilled or baked (with garlic or parsley), or in omelette, are a delicacy. Some of those available among our products come from the Mediterranean, which, in its white variant, is one of the most popular in Spanish gastronomy. And what can we say about their nutritional value? They contain vitamins B12, B3, E, D and K, and iodine that helps regulate the metabolism. They come in boxes of 800 grams.
Prawns, those 10-legged crustaceans, are the other best seafood at Christmas time. There are Vannamei Serie Oro, wild or tiger, according to taste. Grilled and seasoned with salt, they really don’t need anything else. Once peeled and on the plate, they can be dipped in mayonnaise or pink sauce. They contain iron, calcium, potassium, phosphorus or zinc.
The imposing lobster
The Homarus gammarus reigns supreme in the sea and also on the table. With its 60 centimeters in length, it is a delicacy at the table. With a weight of between 300 and 350 grams, its head is the tastiest, although it can be used to make a delicious salpicon. It has a strong sea flavor and presents an estimable contrast between the textures of the body. At Mariscos Apolo it is sold in individual cases for dressing with vinaigrette, for example.
Gambones, the southern prawns
In this case, we have opted for the first cousin Argentine shrimp, which is usually accompanied by lemon, whose recipe you will find inside the box. However, they can also be prepared with brandy, grilled or baked. As for its nutritional value, it is a bomb (of vitamins and minerals, such as sodium or magnesium).
