Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
- Q: What does "CPTO" mean?
- A: CPTO stands for Cleaned, Peeled, and Tail-On. The shells and veins have been completely removed, leaving only the decorative tail intact for easy handling and beautiful plating.
- Q: How should I thaw these frozen prawns quickly?
- A: Place the desired quantity of prawns in a colander and rinse them under cold tap water for 3 to 5 minutes, or leave them sealed in the refrigerator overnight. Avoid warm water, as it can affect their texture.
- Q: What are the best ways to cook CPTO prawns?
- A: Because they cook in just a few minutes, they excel in pan-seared garlic butter, pasta dishes, fried rice, appetizers, and quick wok stir-fries where holding onto the tail makes them easy to dip or pick up.
