Pacwest Products:
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes

A spicy, ‘Italian style’ tomato sauce is a great addition to our crumbed shortfin calamari rings. Northern shortfin squid are one of only two squid species in the world that are currently certified as MSC so market your sustainability commitments and serve outstanding crumbed calamari!

Make the sauce to scale, serve and plate in five minutes. Ideal as an entrée or part of an event platter, this dish is bound to have patrons re-ordering time and time again.

MSC Certified, the natural sweet taste of the shortfin calamari is complimented by the savoury overtones of the seasoned crumb. Serve with plenty of our rich spicy tomato sauce and you have your next ‘big mover’ ready to go!

Sourced off the east coast of north America between the Sea of Labrador and the Florida Straits, our lightly crumbed shortfin calamari rings have been MSC Certified. Northern shortfin squid are one of only two squid species in the world that are currently certified as MSC.
