Octopus

Squid refers to several species, the most commonly used being squid and octopus. They differ in both structure and use.
Squid has a firmer texture and is well suited to quick preparation or as a preserve with a distinct bite. Octopus has a softer and more delicate structure, which makes it suitable for slow cooking and preserving in oil or sauce.
The category includes preserved products where the raw material is cooked and ready to use. The products retain structure and flavor and can be used directly without further preparation.
Typical uses:

Tapas and small servings
Snacks and simple platters
As an element in salads and hot dishes

Preserved squid provides consistent quality and a direct flavor profile, where the raw material is in focus.
