About Asian calamari

Asian calamari is a flavorful appetizer or main dish, showcasing tender squid rings lightly coated in a crispy batter and tossed in a savory, sweet, and tangy glaze. Often garnished with sesame seeds, scallions, and a hint of chili for heat, this dish is influenced by East and Southeast Asian cuisines, such as Japanese, Chinese, and Thai flavors. Squid is a lean source of protein, rich in essential nutrients like vitamin B12, zinc, and selenium, which support energy levels and immunity. Additionally, it contains omega-3 fatty acids, promoting heart and brain health. While the squid itself is a healthy choice, the deep-frying process and sugary sauces can add calories, fat, and sodium, making portion control key. Opting for baked or lightly sautéed variations can make this dish a more nutritious alternative without sacrificing taste. Enjoy Asian calamari as a delightful fusion of texture and flavor.
