Sotong Ball, commonly associated with Southeast Asian cuisine, is a popular seafood snack or dish ingredient made primarily from finely minced squid (sotong), mixed with starch and seasonings to create a smooth, springy texture. This versatile food is often deep-fried, boiled, or grilled and enjoyed in soups, stir-fries, or as a snack paired with dipping sauces. While Sotong Balls are rich in protein, thanks to the squid, they can also be high in sodium due to added seasonings and preservatives. Some versions may contain added starches or flour, which slightly increase carbohydrate content. The preparation method can significantly affect healthfulness—grilling or boiling is lower in fat compared to deep-frying. Sotong Balls are a convenient and flavorful source of seafood, but moderation is advised for those monitoring sodium intake or seeking healthier cooking methods.
