Also known as Dublin prawns, Norway lobsters, or scampi (singular, scampo), langoustines are similar in appearance to crayfish except that they swim in saltwater. Although langoustines can be found all over the world, only three American species are large enough to be marketable, and even these are hard to find. Most of the langoustines found in American markets have been flown in from Europe, where they are more widely available, though never inexpensive. The tails can be used in the same way as shrimp or crayfish tails. The shells are pale and so contribute little color to a crustacean sauce.
