Argentine Squid Tentacles - Deep-Frozen - 800 g
Argentine squid is a popular seafood belonging to the mollusc category, sold here as deep-frozen tentacles. The product consists of cleaned squid tentacles from the species Illex Argentinus and makes up 87 percent of the total content. The remainder consists of water and the antioxidants E500, E501, and E331, which are used to maintain the product's quality during freezing and storage. The squid tentacles are individually quick-frozen, making it easy to take out precisely the amount needed without thawing the entire package. The product is a raw ingredient and must always be thoroughly cooked by heating before serving. It is suitable for a wide range of cooking methods, including pan-frying, grilling, stir-frying, boiling, and deep-frying. Squid has a mild, slightly sweet oceanic flavour and a firm, slightly chewy texture that becomes tender when properly cooked. The tentacles are well-suited for Asian dishes such as stir-fries, soups, and noodle dishes, but can also be used in Mediterranean dishes like calamari or paella. The package contains 800 g and is suitable for both private households and professional kitchens. The product should be stored at a minimum of minus 18 degrees Celsius and must not be refrozen after thawing. The catching method is hook and line, and fishing takes place in the Southwest Atlantic, FAO zone 41. Squid is a natural source of protein and contains very little fat, making it a nutritious choice for those seeking a light and healthy protein source. The product is suitable for food enthusiasts who want to experiment with shellfish and seafood in their home kitchen, as well as for restaurants and catering businesses in need of a reliable, high-quality frozen product. Deep-frozen squid tentacles are a practical ingredient for Asian cuisine, seafood platters, and international kitchens.
