NEW DAWN FOR PRAWNS

-

Good news for shellfish lovers: a Lincolnshi­re farm now delivers Uk-grown prawns to your door. Flogro uses an on-land ‘closed-loop’ system to grow prawns in an ecofriendl­y process approved by the Marine Conservati­on Society. Thousands of tonnes of prawns and shrimps are imported annually, most from Asia and South America. Feed often comprises fishmeal made from illegally sourced wild fish, but Flogro grows it naturally within the system itself. Packs start at £27.50 for half a kilo and can be delivered fresh and chilled within 48 hours. Even Ottolenghi is a fan. flogrosyst­ems.com
