Bigfin Reef Squid
Like the kisslip cuttlefish, the bigfin reef squid enters the Seto Inland Sea by July to spawn and grow. Its head is transparent, flaky and soft, and it is one of the largest squid species in the Seto Inland Sea, growing up to ４０cm in length. Their bodies are translucent, which makes them difficult to find in seawater.

It is sold at the highest price among all squid and octopus and has thick, crunchy flesh with a deep, meltingly sweet flavour. It is also rich in amino acids, the components of flavor. It is used not only as sashimi, but also as an ingredient in sushi. It can also be grilled or boiled to enhance its flavour.
