This Cuttlefish ink was used in times gone by, to season cuttlefish in the absence of other condiments, a common practice for fishermen, who enhanced the flavor of these tender molluscs by using an ingredient provided by nature. Today this precious and tasty black ink is used as a natural food coloring and flavoring agent, with intense taste – used in gourmet recipes such as making home-made squid ink pasta, risotto, bread.
