Prawns are crustaceans similar in appearance to shrimps, often confused with them, but typically larger in size. They have elongated bodies with a distinct bend in their abdomen and possess ten legs, with the first three pairs equipped with claws. Prawns come in various species and are found in both freshwater and saltwater habitats worldwide. They are prized for their sweet, succulent meat and are commonly used in a variety of culinary dishes, including stir-fries, curries, salads, and seafood boils. When cooked, prawns turn pinkish-orange and have a delicate, slightly sweet flavor. They are a good source of protein, low in fat, and provide essential nutrients like selenium, vitamin B12, and omega-3 fatty acids.
