Illex Squid Roe

Our Illex squid roe, also known as squid eggs, is harvested from wild-caught Illex argentinus in the cold, clean waters of the Southwest Atlantic (FAO 41), sourced from mature female squid of 400g+ for premium quality. Each roe is carefully extracted, cleaned, and sorted onboard to remove impurities, retaining its natural pale white color, plump texture, and delicate briny ocean flavor with no off-notes. Flash-frozen at -40°C via BQF technology right after processing, it locks in maximum freshness, tenderness, and nutrient integrity, with a 24-month shelf life at -18°C. Nutritionally dense, it boasts high-quality protein (over 65% dry weight), low fat, and rich omega-3 fatty acids (DHA/EPA), vitamin B12, selenium, and zinc, supporting heart health, immunity, and vitality. Available in 1kg/block or 2kg/block, packed in 10kg/ctn with customizable glaze ratios, it meets HACCP, ISO, and FDA standards. Perfect for steaming, frying, grilling, or marinating, it's a gourmet choice for Asian, European, and North American foodservice and retail markets.
