A 1kg pack (800g net weight) of wild baby cuttlefish, caught in the Indian Ocean off the coast of India. Cuttlefish is a wonderfully underrated cousin of squid and octopus — warm, soft, tender, with a flavour profile close to squid but with its own gentle sweetness. A premium gourmet ingredient at a midweek-affordable price.
