About the Product
Firefly Squid (Hotaru Ika) get their name for the vibrant blue glow they brandish during spawning season .Typically just two or three inches long .
Hotaru Ika are often eaten raw, but are also delicious when marinated and grilled. Their taste is bold and briney, but not too “fishy,” most commonly compared to rich, fatty shrimp, though they earnestly defy any direct comparisons. An approachable, balanced introduction to the squid could be steaming them with dashi and serving over rice, or alongside cucumber salad .
