Place the unopened pack in the chiller (0–4°C) for 2–4 hours until thawed. For quicker thawing, submerge the sealed vacuum pack in cold water for 15–20 minutes. Pat each slice gently with reed paper/kitchen towel before serving to remove excess moisture and enhance the "sticky-sweet" umami. Best Ways To Prepare: Nigiri Sushi: Simply place a thawed slice over a small ball of seasoned sushi rice. Sashimi: Arrange the slices on a bed of shredded daikon. Aburi Style: Lightly score the surface with a knife and use a kitchen torch for 2 seconds to give it a smoky aroma and a slightly curled, decorative look. 💡 Best served with: A small dab of wasabi and a light dip in soy sauce. For a true Japanese twist, try it with a pinch of salt and a squeeze of Sudachi or Lime instead of soy sauce to highlight its natural sweetness. Storage Instructions: 🧊 Keep frozen at -18°C until ready to use ❄️ Once thawed: Store in chiller (0–4°C) and consume within the same day for the best sashimi quality 🚫 Do not refreeze after defrosting to maintain the signature snappy texture Enjoy the elegant, creamy sweetness and premium texture of authentic Japanese-style cuttlefish right at home! 🍣🦑✨
