About Calamari
Calamari, derived from the Italian word for squid, is a popular seafood dish enjoyed in various cuisines, especially Mediterranean and Asian. Typically served fried, grilled, or as part of pasta and salads, calamari is both flavorful and versatile. It is rich in protein, providing essential amino acids for muscle repair and growth, and contains vital nutrients like vitamin B12, selenium, and phosphorus, which support energy production, immune function, and bone health. Calamari is also low in fat and carbohydrates, making it an attractive option for fitness-conscious diets. However, preparation can impact its nutritional profile—fried calamari increases calorie content and adds unhealthy fats, reducing its overall health value. Opting for grilled or baked versions can offer a lighter, nutrient-packed alternative. Its tender texture and mild flavor make calamari a staple in hearty, health-focused meals worldwide.
