Whole wild cuttlefish with mottled brown skin and thick tentacles on ice

A thick-bodied cephalopod with a broad mantle, a cluster of short arms and a chalky internal shell. The meat is denser than squid and stays tender through a fast, hard cook.

The Catch

Wild stock taken by trap and boat from rocky coastal ground, frozen aboard so nothing is landed soft. No water soaking, so the stated weight is the weight of the animal rather than of the ice around it.

Specification

  • Net weight — 2 kg per pack
  • Count — three to five whole animals per pack
  • Size — 400 to 650 g each
  • Form — whole, uncleaned, with the internal shell in place

State

Frozen whole and raw. The skin is mottled brown and will turn pale on thawing, which is expected and not a sign of spoilage.

Storage and Thawing

Keep at -18 degrees Celsius or colder for up to six months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, then pull the internal shell, the eyes, the beak and the ink sac. Score the mantle in a shallow cross-hatch so it does not curl and toughen.

On the Plate

  • Braise in soy, rock sugar and star anise until the sauce glazes the mantle.
  • Score and stir-fry over the highest heat for two minutes with chilli and garlic.
  • Slice thin and blanch for a hot pot or a cold plate.
  • Deep-fry in a light batter for a crisp bar snack.

Cook it either fast or long, never in between: a quick sear keeps it springy, and a slow braise turns it soft.

Shipping and Cold Chain

Shipped frozen in an insulated liner on a next-day service. Any ink released in the bag during transit is natural and rinses off under cold water.

Allergen: contains molluscan shellfish. Packed in a facility that also handles fish and crustaceans.
