Product description

Langoustine: Premium cold-water delicacy, modernly processed


Contrary to popular belief, scampi are not related to shrimp but to lobster, making them one of the most refined crustaceans available. They stand out for their subtly sweet, nutty flavor and exceptionally tender texture, earning them a reputation as a true insider tip among gourmets and in fine dining. You can find more interesting facts about Langoustine in our Seafood A-Z.

This cold-water delicacy is sourced from traditional coastal fisheries in the glacial waters of Norway, where it is caught at depths of around 300 meters between January and April. The catch is then processed using a gentle, species-appropriate, and state-of-the-art method known as High Pressure Processing (HPP). This technique allows the meat to be separated from the shell without damage or loss, while naturally extending shelf life and preserving nutrients, vitamins, minerals, texture, and flavor.

Frequently asked questions

What is langoustine?

Langoustine, also known as scampi or Norway lobster, is a premium crustacean from the lobster family. It’s easily recognized by its distinctive long, slender claws. In fine dining and among seafood connoisseurs, langoustine is considered a true culinary delicacy.

What does langoustine meat taste like?

The meat is exceptionally tender, with a delicate, slightly sweet and nutty flavor.

What’s the best way to prepare langoustine meat?

Since the meat is already removed from the shell, you can skip several prep steps and get started right away. Langoustine meat is highly versatile and can be grilled, pan-fried, or gently cooked. Just be careful not to overcook it, as the delicate texture can quickly become tough. For pan preparation, heat a little oil or butter and sear the meat for about 1–2 minutes. Let it rest briefly, then season with salt, garlic, or a touch of lemon.

What is the difference between langoustine and shrimp?

There are several key differences. Despite common misconceptions, the two are not closely related – langoustine is more comparable to lobster. The term “scampi” is often incorrectly used as a general term for shrimp, but shrimp are a different species and do not have claws. They also differ in taste and texture: langoustine is more refined and complex in flavor, with a more delicate, tender texture compared to the firmer bite of shrimp.

Where does langoustine come from?

Langoustines are primarily found in the Northeast Atlantic, the North Sea, and the waters around Scotland and Ireland. Our langoustine products come from traditional coastal fisheries in the glacial waters of Norway, where they are caught in small quantities between January and April. This approach helps preserve natural populations and ensures a more responsible, sustainable choice.
