It is also important to clean well and disinfect the worktop and kitchen utensils before and after the preparation of langoustines. It is important to remember that pregnant women must always eat fresh or frozen seafood and not smoked, savory or canned, because these products may contain bacteria and toxins that can be dangerous for the baby.
