Description

WHAT ARE PUNTILLITAS?

Our puntillitas, also known as chipirones or baby squid are a very popular ingredient in Southern Spanish cuisine. They are also called chopitos depending where you are.

HOW DO I PREPARE PUNTILLITAS?

They tend to be very small, so the best way of serving them is to coat them in harina de freir, a special Spanish frying flour and quickly fry them until golden brown. Serve with fresh lemon and a very cold beer!  Be sure to check them and de-quill appropriately!

They arrive as a frozen block which requires defrosting. Then they will require cleaning and debeaking with a sharp knife.

HOW MANY PUNTILLITAS DO I GET?

Although our puntillitas are sourced from Sanlucar’s fish and seafood market, they are caught in the Indian Ocean. Whole and head on, they are individually quick frozen on the boats to ensure their freshness and packaged in 1Kg boxes. Each puntillita measures around 5cm in length.

HOW WILL I RECEIVE MY PUNTILLITAS SQUID?

You will receive one frozen box of puntillitas delivered on ice pads. If you are not using the squid straight away, store in the freezer. If you are, then you will need to thaw it in the fridge for at least 4 hours before cooking.

PLEASE NOTE THAT WEIGHTS CAN VARY FROM BOX TO BOX, SO EXPECT A SLIGHT VARIATION ON THE NUMBER OF PUNTILLITAS YOUR GET.
