Pepus–DicedSquidTFM

Get to know: Pepus Diced Squid in Vegetable Oil 115g

Tasting Note

Pepus’s diced squid is clean, tender and gently savoury, with a firm but pleasing bite that works brilliantly across all sorts of dishes. Packed simply in vegetable oil, it lets the natural flavour of the squid do the talking – mild, slightly sweet and properly seafood-fresh. It’s a versatile tin: great straight from the can with olives or pickles, or stirred through salads with chopped onion and peppers. It also holds its own in warm dishes, from rice and paella-style recipes to garlicky sautéed vegetables.

Try it with lemon juice, parsley and good bread, or fold through a warm salad with roasted peppers and a splash of sherry vinegar.

Try pairing this with

• Mauricio Lorca, Calma Indomita Albarin – Dry, aromatic and beautifully textured, a classic match for squid and simple seafood dishes
• Casa de Vilacetinho, Vinho Verde – fresh, zippy and aromatic, with enough texture to handle olive oil and savoury flavours
• Jeanneret, Big Fine Girl Riesling – Zesty nose of peach, nectarine and lemon, ideal with shellfish and lightly dressed salads
