Cuttlefish
Cuttlefish peaks from February to May. While available in smaller numbers during the autumn, the main season occurs in spring when they migrate to shallower coastal waters. They are a fantastic, sustainable alternative to squid, offering a thicker, more tender texture and a deep, savory flavor.
