Fresh Squid Gutted & Frozen

Description:

Hey seafood lovers! If you’re looking for fresh squid that’s easy to cook and enjoy, you’ve come to the right place. Our Fresh Squid is processed and gutted, making it a breeze to prepare for any meal. Perfect for BBQs, stir-fries, or any seafood dish, this squid is all about convenience and flavor. Plus, it’s frozen to lock in freshness and easy to store, so you can always have high-quality squid on hand without the hassle of cleaning.

In Singapore, there are generally two types of squid sources. One is from Malaysia, known for its fresh, sweet flavor and often labeled as high quality. The other is from Indonesia, which you need to be cautious about. Indonesian squid is abundant, but the preparation process can be concerning. These squids are often soaked in chemicals like lye water (alkaline) to neutralize bad smells from being not fresh or low quality. At Shiok BBQ, we prioritize transparency and quality, ensuring our squid is fresh and free from harmful additives.
