About Small shrimps

Small shrimps are tiny crustaceans prized for their delicate flavor and versatility in various cuisines worldwide. Commonly found in Asian, Mediterranean, and Latin American dishes, they are a staple ingredient in stir-fries, stews, salads, and pasta. Nutritionally, small shrimps are an excellent source of lean protein, vitamin B12, and essential minerals such as selenium and iodine, which support thyroid health and immune function. They are also low in calories and fat, making them a heart-friendly choice when prepared without heavy sauces or frying. However, like many seafood options, shrimps contain cholesterol, so moderation is advised, particularly for individuals monitoring their cholesterol intake. Sustainably sourced small shrimps are a healthy and environmentally-conscious choice, offering flavor and nutrition that complements a balanced diet. They're perfect for adding texture and protein to dishes in a light and nutritious way.
