The zamburiñais a bivalve mollusc typical of Galician gastronomy. Belonging to the Pectinidae family, like the vieira or volandeira, the zamburiña lives attached to the rock or buried in the sandy bottoms where it feeds by filtering the plankton in suspension in the seawater. The filtering species accumulate impurities and for this reason in Mariscos O Grove we prepare the samburiña clean, gutted and most importantly frozen.

It should be noted that there is a month of the year in which we can consume the fresh prawns for this just send an e-mail or call us and we will inform you of its availability.

Within the seafood, the zamburiña is a highly demanded product in celebrations and banquets, for its reasonable price and exquisite taste.

Approximately one dozen prawns equivalent to a portion for 2 people. In addition to its appreciated flavour, zamburiñas zamburiñas require little preparation to delight the palate. You can find a simple recipe for zamburiñas in our BLOG section.

Difference Between Scallops and Scallops

The main difference between the zamburiña and the scallop is that the latter is three times the size of the zamburiña. Another characteristic that differs from the zamburiña is the more intense flavour of the scallop in contrast to the delicate flavour of the zamburiña, with a certain sweetness. Your choice will depend on your personal taste in terms of the flavour of shellfish; between the strength of the sea flavour, or the complexity and smoothness of the zamburiña.
