Squid — photo 1

Squid (calamari) is a lean mollusk eaten grilled, stir-fried, stuffed, stewed or in rings. A 150 g raw portion has about 140 kcal and 23 g of protein with 2 g of fat, and is very high in copper and selenium and high in vitamin B12 and riboflavin. Squid turns tough if cooked for more than a few minutes, unless it is stewed for a long time; the values here are for the cleaned raw squid.
