Deluxe Seafood Platter Box
Please store shellfish in the fridge before plating up. Please follow instructions below regarding your mussels and RAW Langoustine. Allow time to defrost the Cooked Crevettes and raw Langoustine in the fridge before cooking/serving. Please consume oysters within 3 days of delivery for optimum freshness.
Mussels Instructions: Fully submerge the mussels in cold clean tap water for a few minutes. Then drain and discard any broken mussels or mussels that remain wide open (it is normal for mussels to remain slightly open). The mussels should smell fresh with no unpleasant or strong odours.
Langoustines instructions: Let the langoustines defrost overnight in the fridge or if they are to be consumed immediately, remove them from the packaging and place them in a bowl of cold water under slow trickling water to defrost (about 10-15 minutes). Then place them in a pot filled with salted boiling water and leave them to cook for 3-4 minutes.
Lobster Tomalley: Tomalley is a soft, green substance sometimes found in the body cavity of the lobster. It functions as the liver and pancreas and is quite normal, it does not signify there is anything wrong with the lobster.
We usually use freshly cooked Lobsters, however occasionally bad weather or supply issues require us to use previously frozen Lobsters.
Occasionally, due to many different factors such as bad weather, seasonality or restricted supply, some items may be replaced with an alternative of equal value or refunded.
