## Description

Essential for Arroz Negro

Review: A bit pricey, but it's worth the money spent - Pricey, but well worth the money. Having grown up in the tropics where fresh - NOT FRESH, FROZEN- calamari is easily available, I missed having calamari en su tinta. Here we can buy beautiful fresh, frozen (isn't that an oxymoron? 😝) squid but the ink sacs are gone. This Nortindal jar of cooking magic solves that dilemma. It's a big jar, one only needs about 2 tablespoons per dish ..... It's worth it. Besides, open it, use what you need, store the rest in the refrigerator. It will keep for a while.
Review: A little goes a long way - You will get a lot of cuttlefish ink in this container. If you use it often, you may see the value in the purchase. If you use it sparingly - maybe once a month like myself - it's a bottomless abyss of inky goodness. I've personally used it for making black pasta, using no more than a tablespoon at a time. As such, I'll probably only use about half the jar before it expires. That said, if you're planning on getting this to experiment, try finding a smaller container, and certainly go for it. If you're going to use it full-time, such as in a buffet or restaurant setting, have at it! As per the quality of the ingredient and the taste, it's almost a non-issue: the taste is appropriately subtile!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How long will the ink last in the fridge once it has been opened?**
A: Greetings.  I don't have any specific information, but considering the salt content, I'd expect it to last months as long as the fridge is cool enough.  I don't use products like this very fast myself, so tend to freeze serving size portions if I have any worries; but then, this is Arizona so a more normal climate probably doesn't perk as much.  If you're worried about a jar that's been open awhile, considering the content I'd bet a good sniff or taste would tell a lot, and I think most recipes call for cooking it anyway.

**Q: May I know if this product could be frozen?**
A: Yes.  No problem.  I regularly freeze it in a freezer bag.

### ⭐ This is Cuttle Fish Ink, not Squid Ink: Similar but Different
*by R***R on May 3, 2013*

I ordered this and was upset because, while they are similar, this is Cuttlefish ink (look at the lable), not squid ink. It is a brown-black not a blue-black. They did offer to let me return it, but they did not feel they had mis-represented the product. I disagree.
