Type: Frozen (Shoyu Marinated)

Description:
Hotaru Ika, or Firefly Squid, is a seasonal delicacy in Japan known for its natural blue glow during spring spawning. These small squid—just 2 to 3 inches long—are prized for their rich, briny flavor and tender texture.

Pre-cooked and marinated in soy sauce, our Hotaru Ika is ready to enjoy straight from the pack or can be served with rice, cucumber salad, or gently steamed with dashi for a more delicate dish.

Flavor Profile:
Deep umami, slightly sweet, with a creamy, shrimp-like richness that stands apart from any other seafood.

Serving Tips:
Enjoy whole for the full texture. Serve chilled or lightly warmed. Ideal as a small appetizer or side dish.
