Calamari

Red’s Calamari is meaty, sweet, and mild tasting. Great for grilling during the summer or adding it to your favorite Italian dish. It’s hard to get fresher or more locally caught squid than this as it is caught within a 2-hour boat ride off the coast of Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

Red’s Best uses advanced freezer technology to super-freeze their locally caught fish and shellfish to temperatures below -61 degrees Fahrenheit for a minimum of 24 hours. They perform this process as it is necessary to reduce the risk of consuming raw, wild seafood. Red’s Best commercial super freezer accelerates the freezing process, and preserves the texture of the proteins by reducing the expansion of water molecules within the flesh of the seafood.

The portions are flash frozen and vacuum sealed at peak freshness from the ocean. They are delivered to us frozen and stored in our freezer until they are packed in your box. Each item provides the transparent catch data on the packaging; the fisherman, vessel, port of origin, and gear used.

All our seafood selections are evaluated based on location and catch or aquaculture method as recommended by the Monterey Bay Seafood Watch.

• Catch Method: Harvested using small-mesh bottom trawls. Methods to catch Calamari do not have a a great impact on habitats.
