🦐 Use fresh, high-quality prawns for the best flavor and texture – defrost them properly by placing them in the refrigerator overnight rather than using hot water
🍋 Make the croutons fresh and serve immediately to maintain their crunch – stale croutons will make the dish less appealing
🥬 Arrange the lettuce leaves on a chilled platter and keep everything refrigerated until ready to serve to maintain freshness and food safety
