Myself, I take these & broil them for about 6 min., brushing with garlic butter. Then, serve with drawn butter like you would lobster. Round out the meal with a veggie saffron rice, a glass of good Pinot Griggio, & it is pure heaven. You can also line them on a smaller oven/sizzle platter with butter & garlic & broil, then you will not need the drawn butter.

Clearly, I didn’t give these things a proper chance. I’ll try them again and use one of your methods. Thanks!

I agree. It is all about the seasoning. I seasoned them with some creole seasoning, garlic and butter. Next, I placed them in the oven for about fifteen minutes. Once the langoustines were done I mixed them in a spagetti meat sauce, chopped broccoli and green onions . Serve it up with garlic bread and your favorite drink.

Well, I disagree. I purchased these this week also becuase of the label. I thawed them and in a saute pan I placed garlic, olive oil, chopped tom. and a splash of champagne. Then I put a little lemon zest. Boiled briefly and simmered, then placed the langoustines in with some leftover cooked wheat penne and had a delicious, quick, and cheap meal. Topped with a little parmesan.
Very impressed.
