Fresh Frozen Abalone Steak 4-Pack (4-5 oz. total)
from American Abalone
DESCRIPTION
This legendary seafood delicacy is shipped as frozen prepared abalone steaks overnight. The abalone meat is removed from the shell, trimmed and tenderized prior to being vacuum packed and frozen fresh to ensure a high-quality product. The steaks simply need to be defrosted, rinsed in water, and they are ready to be cooked. The quality and taste of the frozen and fresh are about the same. The prepared abalone steaks are definitely a good option for the amateur abalone chef! The abalone steaks average about 1 to 1.25 ounces each; we recommend four per entrée serving or fewer as appetizers.
American Abalone raises the highest quality naturally grown California red abalone–an excellent choice for environmentally conscious seafood lovers. Our oceanfront farm within the pristine waters of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary provides an ideal environment for raising abalone. This rural stretch of California coast supplies cool, clean seawater for our land-based operation; we operate seawater pumps that continuously provide fresh seawater to the abalone that are grown inside of seawater tanks. The abalone are fed various types of seaweed and grown in a very natural manner, under the care of marine biologist Tom Ebert.
INGREDIENTS
California red abalone
but they are a good substitute and are available! They come ready to cook and are packed in a styrafoam container and arrive frozen. We will order again :)

As for overnighting the product, no problem. It arrived cold and ready to be prepared. Mine was not frozen, but there was a window of a week for its use. I had some trouble with the website in terms of ordering, but I called the phone number listed and my call was responded to within a few hours by a polite and thorough young man.
I'll only do this on special occasions, but it is nice to know a great abalone dinner is only a phone call away!
