About School prawn
School prawn is a common name used for small edible prawns, particularly in Australian seafood contexts. The name can refer to prawns sold whole or prepared in different ways, and a market name alone may not establish the exact species or processing.
Prawns are generally used cooked in seafood dishes, and their flesh is mild and relatively tender when properly cooked. They may be sold fresh, chilled, frozen, whole, or peeled. Because the common name is not fully consistent across regions and labels, the exact species and product form should be treated as unspecified here.
