When looking at the cuttlebone from the side, you can see one side has a yellow/off-white layer. This is the backing.
I use a pointy butter knife to chip the backing off. I usually start by wedging the point just under the backing.
It is not necessary to use "Turtle Bone". Regular bird cuttlebone is just as good. Buy which ever you can get cheaper.
