Our products
Prawns from Lyngenfjord should have a fresh taste, a firm and resilient
consistency and a natural red color.
Late growth in cold Arctic waters gives the prawn a sweet and slightly salty taste
that is unique to prawns from Northern Norway.
Characteristics of good quality fresh shell on prawn are that they have a fresh smell of the sea and are aesthetically pleasing.
In addition, they have their spears and antennae intact, which is not the case
with shell on prawns that have been frozen.
Fresh prawn is a sensitive product so it is extremely important to have an unbroken cold chain so that the quality does not deteriorate.
Lyngenfjord is available either as shell on prawn, hand-peeled prawn, machine-peeled prawn or raw prawn.
Lyngenfjord hand-peeled prawn
Lyngenfjord hand-peeled shrimp consists of the very best shrimp from the fjords of Northern Norway and the Barents Sea.
The shrimp are peeled by hand at our factory in Lyngen, Troms. They are then placed in a brine that preserves the natural flavor while also providing a shelf life of up to 8 weeks.
This results in a short-lived niche product of high quality.
In 2019, Lyngenfjord hand-peeled shrimp was awarded the Spesialitet mark, an official mark for exceptional Norwegian local food.
