Dried Squid

Dried Squid is a popular snack and ingredient across East Asian and Southeast Asian cuisines, made by drying and often lightly smoking or seasoning squid. It’s commonly eaten as a chewy, savory snack or rehydrated and added to stir-fries, soups and salads. As a concentrated seafood product, Dried Squid is an excellent source of protein, providing about 69g of protein per 100g, and also supplies notable amounts of vitamin B12, selenium and copper — minerals important for energy metabolism and antioxidant defenses. Nutritionally it’s valued for its high-quality amino acids and micronutrient density, but because dried seafood is often salted during processing it can contribute substantial sodium to a meal, so enjoying it in moderation or choosing low-salt preparations is a sensible approach.
