Fresh Wild Cuttlefish are landed through Brixham Fish Market and supplied whole, complete with their natural ink. Available in 1kg packs, the exact quantity of fish will depend on size, typically ranging from 1 to 3 cuttlefish per kilo. Always fresh, never previously frozen and prepared to order.

Why it’s special: A close relative of squid, cuttlefish is prized for its firm flesh and rich flavour, making it popular in Mediterranean and Asian cuisine. Sourced from the clear waters of the South West, each fish is carefully selected for quality.

Quality & versatility: With a naturally sweet taste and meaty texture, cuttlefish is perfect for grilling, braising, or slow-cooking in sauces. The ink can also be used to enrich pasta or risotto dishes with a dramatic colour and depth of flavour.

Serving inspiration: Try cuttlefish slow-cooked in a tomato and red wine sauce, or slice into rings for flash-frying with garlic, parsley, and chilli.
