Gueyu Mar Braised Squid in Ink 170g

Güeyu Mar Braised Squid in Ink is a deeply savoury, restaurant-quality take on one of Spain’s classic seafood dishes. Tender squid is slowly braised in its own rich ink sauce, creating a glossy, intensely flavoured conserve with layers of briny depth and gentle sweetness. It is bold in appearance, but beautifully balanced on the palate—more umami-rich than fishy, with the squid remaining soft and satisfying.

Made in Asturias by Güeyu Mar, one of Spain’s most inventive conserva producers, this 170 g tin reflects the brand’s chef-led approach to preserving exceptional seafood. It turns a traditionally time-consuming dish into something remarkably easy to serve at home: simply warm it gently and let the sauce do the work.

The ink sauce is the real luxury here. Dark, silky and full of coastal flavour, it deserves a proper vehicle for every last spoonful—crusty bread, creamy rice or good pasta all work beautifully.

Serving suggestions

• Warm gently and serve over creamy rice, finishing with parsley and lemon zest.
• Spoon onto toasted sourdough with a little alioli.
• Toss through squid-ink pasta or spaghetti with garlic and chopped parsley.
• Serve alongside boiled potatoes or a potato purée to soak up the sauce.
• Make a small tapas plate with roasted peppers, pickled guindilla chillies and bread.
• Pair with a crisp green salad dressed simply with sherry vinegar and olive oil.
