"Shrimp are having a great year -- there's an abundant harvest featuring some of the lowest prices for medium and small shrimp in about 25 years.
"Shrimp is No. 1 among shellfish and fish sales in the United States," says Stephen Benyo, president of Pittsburgh Seafoods wholesale food purveyors.
Consumers have a wide choice of shrimp -- wild or farmed; domestic or imported; and white, pink, brown or tiger varieties.
The majority of shrimp is sold frozen, which, if handled correctly, will not 8interfere with flavor or texture, says Benyo, whose father founded Pittsburgh Seafoods in 1954. "There's little difference between quality frozen vs. fresh shrimp."
