Scampi
VIETTINFOOD’s Giant Freshwater Prawn (Scampi) is the “hero” ingredient for hotpots, grilling menus, and banquet feasts in Asian culinary systems. Sourced from ASC-certified key farming regions in the Mekong Delta, our prawns stand out with firm meat, a clean sweetness, and most notably, the rich, creamy golden roe—the signature essence of this species. These prawns are pre-processed to Ready-to-cook standards: claws trimmed, heads and shells cleaned, and ready for the stove immediately after thawing.
Utilizing IQF flash-freezing technology, our Scampi retains 100% of the peak freshness and texture of a fresh catch. For B2B partners, this is an optimized solution to standardize dish quality, eliminate weight-loss risks, and significantly cut primary preparation labor costs. Fully certified by HACCP and ISO 22000, we guarantee a stable, safe, and elite supply chain for your professional enterprise.

The Freshwater Masterpiece for Elite Banquets
If the Black Tiger shrimp wins over diners with its crunch, the Giant Freshwater Prawn (Scampi) captures hearts with its deep savory sweetness and the luxurious, buttery golden roe hidden beneath its shell. This is an iconic ingredient, a “must-have” for grand banquets due to its impressive size and vibrant color transformation after cooking.
“Golden Roe” – The Unique Value Proposition
The greatest allure of the Scampi lies in its head. Upon cooking, the roe turns a brilliant orange, releasing a signature aroma and an irresistible, creamy “Umami” flavor.
Firm, Succulent Meat: Scampi meat features a thick, resilient, and deeply sweet structure, making it perfectly suited for high-heat cooking methods like grilling or hotpots.
Majestic Presentation: With its long blue claws and robust body, Scampi brings a sense of grandeur to any plate, allowing restaurants to easily position it in the premium menu segment.
Ready-to-cook: Where Finesse Meets Efficiency
Preparing Scampi is a meticulous task due to its long claws and sharp spikes. Our Ready-to-cook solution is designed to completely liberate the chef’s hands:
Precision Trimming: Claws are neatly trimmed (preserving the base for decoration if requested), heads cleaned, and the digestive tract removed.
Odor & Bacteria Control: A specialized cold-water washing process removes the typical “muddy” scent of freshwater prawns, ensuring the purest flavor profile.
IQF Flash-Freezing: Each prawn is individually frozen to prevent clumping. This protects the precious roe inside the head from breaking or melting during logistics, ensuring a flawless presentation every time.
