Cross-Scored Squid Rolls

Each piece is scored in a fine diamond pattern, so it curls into a flower the moment it hits the heat and catches sauce in every groove. Tender, clean-tasting and endlessly versatile.

• Scores that bloom — the diamond cuts open up into petals as they cook.
• Tender by design — the scoring breaks the muscle so it never turns tough.
• Sauce-friendly — every groove holds seasoning.

What you get

• Colour: snowy white, faintly translucent
• Cut: diamond-scored pieces, roughly 5 to 8 cm
• Texture: springy and delicate, never chewy
• Storage: keep chilled; cook within two days

Cooking notes

• Flash-fry hot and fast so the pieces curl without toughening
• Blanch briefly for cold platters and salads
• Great in garlic, chilli and spring-onion stir-fries
