Frozen Gigas Squid Cube

Frozen Gigas Squid Cube
Product Introduction:
A cube only earns its place if every piece comes out the same size, and that's what we build this product around. We take wild-caught Peruvian gigas mantles — Dosidicus gigas — clean and skin them, flatten them, cut them into uniform cubes on automated dicing lines, grade them by size, and IQF-freeze them. The frozen gigas squid cubes we ship are held in a -18°C cold chain from our line to your kitchen — same size, same cook time, same portion weight, every batch.
Identical cubes mean even heat and consistent cook times — the thing that makes standardized frying and portion accounting work. The meat is firm and resilient, so the cubes hold their shape through frying, boiling or baking without crumbling or shrinking. We keep the grading strict and check every batch before it ships, which is why food processing plants, fried snack manufacturers and commercial kitchens treat them as a stable, reliable bulk ingredient.

Technical Parameters

Processing Workflow

Nine steps between raw mantle and frozen gigas squid cubes, each one checked:

01/

Raw material selection. Wild-caught Peruvian gigas mantles, checked on arrival.

02/

Cleaning and skinning. Viscera, cartilage and the outer purple skin removed; high-pressure water jets clear the mucus.

03/

De-acidification. A soaking step takes out the natural acidity of Peruvian gigas, so the final taste is clean.

04/

Flattening and shaping. Mantles are split open and flattened, irregular edges trimmed off before cutting.

05/

Automated dicing. Precision longitudinal and transverse cuts produce uniform cubes.

06/

Size grading. Vibrating graders sort by size and pull out undersized pieces and fragments.

07/

IQF freezing. At -35°C to -40°C, each cube freezes on its own - no clumping.

08/

Metal detection. 100% screening on every batch.

09/

Packaging and storage. Weighed, packed, and held at -18°C with the cold chain unbroken.

Key Features

What these frozen gigas squid cubes are known for:

01/

Uniform, cook-synchronized. Automated dicing plus vibratory grading keeps every cube the same size, so pieces cook at the same rate - no overcooked and raw pieces in the same batch. That's what standardized output needs.

02/

Holds its shape. Firm, resilient gigas meat keeps the cube through frying, boiling, baking or stir-frying - no crumbling, no falling apart, no shrinking.

03/

Clean white appearance. No bleaching agents; the product has a natural, clean white look that suits light-colored dishes and retail packs.

04/

No small bits. Grading screens out undersized and damaged pieces, so you pay for intact cubes and cost by weight comes out precise.

05/

De-acidified. Peruvian gigas has a slight natural acidity; we soak it out so the taste is clean, with no sour notes, across delicate and complex flavor profiles.

06/

Pours free, weighs fast. IQF keeps cubes separate, so they pour out freely - efficient for automated filling and manual weighing.

07/

No additives. No preservatives, bleaching agents or artificial colors; just food-grade ice glazing holding moisture and the squid's own flavor.

08/

100% metal detection. Every batch screened, plus foreign object checks - food safety compliance is built in.
