If you haven't had these I'd urge anyone to give them a try.
They look like a tiny prawn, but are more fleshy and pack a real flavour punch.

Simply heat up in butter and some black pepper and serve with brown bread.

They are local to me and are well known in our area but probably not so much so in the rest of the country.

I'd urge anyone to try them if you haven't. I'll be having them as a starter on xmas day.
Google suppliers. I'd recomend buying them in the 250g brown shrimp multiple's rather than small already potted tubs.
Ocuk needs to give these a try!

They certainly sound tasty, bet it's a real bugger to source them though

You can order them through Furness Fish and Game. http://www.morecambebayshrimps.com/Peeled_Brown_Shrimps.htm
I buy them through this company at a local market.
Looks like they aren't sending orders out now until after xmas.
They also have a stall at the borough market in london.

You can buy them from Lancaster Smokehouse.
