In the heat of the holiday rush, every second in the kitchen counts. Our Arista EZ-Peel Shrimp are designed to give chefs the best of both worlds: world-class quality and significantly reduced prep time. These farm-raised white shrimp are harvested from seawater exchange farms and processed using the traditional Ikejime method—a technique that preserves the shrimp’s natural sweetness and ensures a firm, snappy bite.

Beyond the ease of preparation, Arista shrimp are a win for the conscious kitchen. These shrimp are 100% chem-free and raised using sustainable, ethical farming practices that prioritize a low carbon footprint. Whether you are looking for the robust 13-15 count or the versatile 16-20 size, you are serving a product that is as responsible as it is delicious.

From the raw bar to the center of the plate, the versatility of these shrimp makes them a holiday menu essential. The EZ-Peel functionality allows for quick cleaning while maintaining the "shell-on" flavor profile if desired for grilling or roasting. With their unmatched texture and clean flavor, Arista shrimp elevate classic holiday appetizers and entrees alike, ensuring your guests enjoy a premium "ocean-to-table" experience without adding extra hours to your prep schedule.

Festive Menu Inspiration

• Pomegranate & Blood Orange Shrimp Ceviche: Use the snappy texture of Arista shrimp in a vibrant, citrus-forward ceviche topped with fresh pomegranate seeds for a pop of holiday color.
• Garlic & Herb Butter Roasted Shrimp: Toss the EZ-Peel shrimp in a heavy compound butter of roasted garlic, rosemary, and lemon, then oven-roast until the shells are crispy and the meat is succulent.
• Smoked Paprika & Honey Glazed Skewers: A perfect festive appetizer—skewered shrimp lightly charred on the grill and brushed with a sweet and smoky glaze.
• Champagne Cream Shrimp Pasta: Large 13-15ct shrimp sautéed and served over linguine in a silky champagne and tarragon cream sauce for an elegant holiday entree.
