PanaPesca’s East Coast Calamari delivers a tender bite, clean flavor, and dependable performance across a wide range of menu applications. Well suited for classic fried calamari, shareable appetizers, seafood platters, salads, and small plates, it also performs beautifully grilled, sautéed, or incorporated into pasta and coastal-inspired dishes. Available in convenient, cost-aware portion packs, this product helps operators manage food costs, reduce prep time, and maintain consistency during high-volume service. For best results, marinate calamari in buttermilk or evaporated milk for several hours prior to cooking to enhance tenderness. When freshly breaded, fry quickly at 350°F for approximately 45 seconds to 1 minute until lightly golden. Avoid overcooking to preserve the calamari’s naturally tender texture and clean, ocean-forward flavor.
