Frozen Cuttlefish - 800-1800 g
Frozen cuttlefish belongs to the mollusk group and is a popular ingredient in Asian, Southern European, and Middle Eastern cuisine. The animal bears the scientific name Sepia pharaonis and is caught by trawling in the Eastern Indian Ocean, FAO Zone 57. The product is supplied as whole, raw, and cleaned cuttlefish, frozen and coated with a protective layer of ice to preserve quality during storage and transport. The weight per package varies between 800 g and 1800 g, offering flexibility for both private households and professional kitchens. Cuttlefish meat is firm and tender with a mild, slightly sweet taste of the sea, making it suitable for grilling, frying, stir-frying, and simmering dishes. The texture is characteristic of mollusks and becomes soft and juicy with proper preparation. The product is raw and must always be thoroughly cooked before consumption. Thawing should be done slowly in the refrigerator, and under no circumstances should the product be refrozen after thawing. Storage must be at a minimum of -18°C to ensure shelf life and food safety. The packaging is a sealed plastic bag with an ice glaze that protects the contents from dehydration and freezer burn. Frozen cuttlefish is a protein-rich and low-fat ingredient, naturally gluten-free, and suitable for many different diets. The product is aimed at food enthusiasts who wish to work with fresh seafood ingredients in the home kitchen, as well as restaurants and catering companies in need of quality frozen mollusks. Frozen cuttlefish is an excellent ingredient in dishes such as grilled cuttlefish, stir-fry with vegetables, seafood risotto, and Asian noodle dishes.
