Product Overview
Large live whelks gathered from clean coastal water and hand-selected for consistent size. Each shell holds plump, thick meat with a springy, chewy bite and a deep, briny ocean umami.
Because they are graded by hand, damaged and thin specimens are screened out before packing, so the meat yield per shell stays generous.

Ways to Enjoy
Boiled or steamed: rinse well, then cook in boiling water for 8 to 12 minutes until fully done.
Spicy stir-fry: remove the meat from the shells, slice it, and toss with chilli, garlic and seasonings over high heat.
Always cook thoroughly before eating, and never serve raw.
Storage
For live whelks, keep refrigerated and cook quickly. To freeze, seal tightly and hold at -18 C or below. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
