Alalunga Cuttlefish in Ink, 138g

Wholesale account required

Alalunga Cuttlefish in Ink is a traditional Cantabrian preparation of fresh cephalopods preserved in a savory sauce. This selection reflects the regional culinary tradition of northern Spain with technical precision.

Craft & Origin

The cuttlefish is sourced from local fleets in the Cantabrian Sea during the peak season. Alalunga prepares the dish using a slow-cooked sofrito of onions and tomatoes combined with natural ink and Arbequina extra virgin olive oil. Pieces are hand-packed in Cantabria to ensure a tender texture and precise sauce consistency. Each tin is numbered to identify the specific catch and landing vessel. This small-batch approach prioritizes seasonal ingredients and maintains full traceability for every production run.

Flavor & Texture

Savory and oceanic with a deep umami profile. The cuttlefish is tender with a slight bounce.

How to Use

Serve warm over white rice or with crusty bread and Marcona almonds.
