Prime’s spiny lobster comes from the southern lobster catching area of Brazil. It has a unique color and sweet taste thanks to the lower temperatures of its water compere to other catching areas. Prime Seafood has been working hard to bring a best-in-class product. Prime’s Nitrogen Frozen Spiny Lobster is a new way to preserve the flavour of frozen spiny lobster, making it taste as fresh as the day it was caught. Live lobsters arrive daily to their factory and are immediately processed and frozen using liquid nitrogen to flash freeze the lobster.  This revolutionary process locks in the freshness at day zero, so the taste, texture, color, and moisture are it is out of the water. Prime’s Nitrogen Frozen Spiny Lobster is a new benchmark for the high-end restaurant and retailers. It is a great alternative for those who don’t have the structure to handle live lobster. It can be used not only for cooking purpose but also raw for sashimi ceviche.
