Etymology
The word 'prawn' comes from the late 14th century, derived from the Middle English word 'prane,' which is of uncertain origin. It may have roots in the Old French 'pran' or the Old English 'prวฃnian,' meaning to catch fish or shellfish. Prawns have been a staple in coastal diets due to their abundance in marine environments. Over time, the cooking and preparation methods for prawns have evolved, leading to various culinary traditions across different cultures. Prawning is still a popular activity today, both for recreational fishing and for food sourcing. The term 'prawn' itself encompasses a variety of species, with many culinary uses, contributing to its widespread usage in gastronomy.
