Premium California Market Squid (Doryteuthis opalescens) Sustainably harvested from the cold Pacific waters, our California Market Squid is world-renowned for its incredibly tender texture and delicate, sweet flavor. These small, thin-walled squid are the gold standard for creating the perfect crispy calamari or elegant seafood pasta. 100% natural and chef-quality.
Discover why professional chefs prefer the Doryteuthis opalescens over any other species. Native to the pristine coastal waters of the Eastern Pacific, the California Market Squid is smaller and more delicate than the common jumbo squid, offering a superior culinary experience with a “melt-in-your-mouth” tenderness.
Why Choose Doryteuthis Opalescens? Unlike larger, tougher squid varieties, the Market Squid has thin mantle walls that cook quickly and absorb flavors beautifully. Its flavor profile is mild and sweet, making it an incredibly versatile ingredient for any seafood menu.
Culinary Inspirations:
The Perfect Calamari: Slice into thin rings, lightly flour, and flash-fry for a tender, golden appetizer that is never “rubbery.”
