Description
Sepia Cuttlefish Whole Cleaned Raw - Size 8-12 - 800g
Sepia cuttlefish belong to the mollusc category and are a popular ingredient in Asian and Mediterranean-inspired cuisine. These whole, cleaned specimens are supplied frozen and are ready for thawing and further preparation. The size designation 8-12 indicates the number of cuttlefish per kilogram, providing a good and consistent portion size suitable for both home kitchens and professional kitchens. Sepia differs from calamari by having a softer and more tender texture and a slightly sweet taste, which makes it particularly suitable for slow cooking methods such as stewing and braising, but it also works well for quick stir-frying or grilling. The texture is firm but juicy after proper preparation, and the meat effectively absorbs spices and marinades. The product contains 80% cuttlefish and has added water and humectants to maintain quality during freezing. The 800g bag is practical for family meals or for preparing larger meals. Storage should be at -18°C or colder, and the product must not be refrozen after thawing. When stored at +5°C, the product can last for up to 24 hours, at -6°C for up to 3 days, and at -12°C for up to 2 weeks. The product is suitable for consumers who wish to work with fresh seafood in frozen form, including food enthusiasts interested in Asian cuisine, seafood lovers, and chefs looking for tender and flavorful cuttlefish for their dishes.
