Abstract : Squid is abundant in Agno, Pangasinan, Philippines. Moringa was identified as a superfood. During the pandemic, several squids were rotten because the community does not have the technology to process the squid.

The Squid Jerky Snack flavored with Moringa is a dried, seasoned, and ready-to-eat seafood product, made from squid.

Unlike beef jerky, Squid Jerky is healthier, more nutritious, and inexpensive compared to beef, to be able to create a livelihood for the people of Pangasinan. This study covers the essential aspects of developing Squid Jerky Snack flavored with moringa in terms of the product description, ingredients, procedure, and tools and equipment needed in its preparation. Also, this study investigated the acceptability of the sensory quality of Squid Jerky Snack flavored with moringa in terms of taste, aroma, texture, and overall acceptability. The study was conducted on selected tourists and residents of Agno, Pangasinan, and the faculty and staff of Pangasinan State University – Asingan Campus.
