Squid Meat

The squid tube, also known as the squid mantle or body, is the main edible part of the squid, referring to the cylindrical body after removing the head, tentacles, and viscera. This part features thick, firm meat with a tender and springy texture. It is rich in high-quality protein and taurine. After de-skinning and de-viscerating, it appears pure white with an intact shape. Squid tubes are ideal for cutting into rings, scoring, or cooking whole. They are widely used in grilling, frying, teppanyaki, and sashimi, making them a core ingredient in the global seafood processing and catering industry.
