That, combined with its mild, delicately savory, and just a touch sweet flavor, makes the bao bun an especially compelling conveyance for hearty proteins and aromatic sauces, as Trader Joe’s Mini Shrimp Bao rather deliciously demonstrate. Made for us by an expert supplier in Vietnam, each box contains eight miniature, clamshell-style Bao laden with a well-seasoned shrimp patty, as well as a sweet and sticky lemongrass, lime, and chili sauce for dipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExcellent as an appetizer, hors d’oeuvre, or side dish, Trader Joe’s Mini Shrimp Bao offer a marvelous medley of complementary flavors and textures in every bite. Individually, each Bao takes less than a minute to microwave, and when prepped together, only a few minutes in the steamer before they’re tender, tasty, and ready to serve. They can be enjoyed as they are, right out of the box, or, if you prefer, dressed to your liking; we’re partial to garnishing each Bao with quick-pickled cucumber ribbons, shredded carrots, and freshly torn cilantro leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kate's Crates","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43515086241834,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/8348\/2666\/files\/webp-1280_91270e7d-b64b-4654-957c-7d0defa894b7.webp?v=1757012232"},{"product_id":"seafood-boil-limited","title":"Seafood Boil (LIMITED)","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn our estimation, nothing represents the very best aspects of Cajun cuisine better than a classic, Louisiana- style seafood boil. There’s the remarkable range of flavors, the ingenuity of ingredients, and, of course, the overall emphasis on community—what else can bring people together like a big batch of fiery-hot shellfish, after all? In honor of this storied (not to mention well-spiced) tradition, we’re bringing in Trader Joe’s Seafood Boil to our freezers. Each box contains a bag of shrimp, tilapia, clams, and andouille sausage, along with hearty corn on the cob and miniature potatoes, all pre-seasoned with a lip-smackingly spicy garlic butter sauce.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eÇa c’est bon, non?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce home, your Trader Joe’s Seafood Boil can be conveniently prepped by either boiling it all in-bag, or by placing the contents of the bag in a sauce pan and heating until cooked through. Either way, in about 20- 25 minutes, you’ll have a spicy, buttery, Cajun-style seafood and veggie medley ready to be served. It makes an excellent and practically effortless weeknight dinner option, especially considering each bag contains two hearty servings. We recommend pairing your Seafood Boil with an Everyday Butter Lettuce Salad and some white rice or crusty bread to soak up as much of that garlicky, buttery sauce as you can.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kate's Crates","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43515086864426,"sku":null,"price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/8348\/2666\/files\/webp-1280_c08ac83b-f43c-4c5e-bc9a-2f25991874e1.webp?v=1757012304"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/8348\/2666\/collections\/webp-1280_86865efb-9dd5-4057-9d65-e5565d6a60b5.webp?v=1757513888","url":"https:\/\/katescrates.myshopify.com\/collections\/from-the-freezer.oembed?page=4","provider":"Kate's Crates","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
