Sweet and Juicy Spot Prawns are Back

Big, meaty spot prawns are back and they taste sweet

Spot prawn season is back!

I'm seeing how some restaurants are cooking these delicious plump and sweet prawns.

Some offer them sashimi style, charcoal grilled, deep-fried heads with kewpie mayo, ceviche, gnocchi, or in a prawn toast.

But one restaurant is offering spot prawn poutine: the "gravy" is made from the prawn bisque, together with cheese curds and thick-cut fries.

Sounds intriguing, and rich, but I'd rather have them like we did tonight -- spot prawns poached and then dipped in a soy sauce mix with oil, scallions, ginger, a touch of honey, and diluted with water. 

Hope we can have some more before the season ends in a few weeks!
