jewie 3 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 simple recipe and tasty as hell.approx 500g squid tentacles or rings1 red capsicum finely slicedoregano and parsleywhite vinegar waterand a touch of oilboil a saucepan of water. add squid and capsicum. cook until the squid is white or approx 60 seconds.leave to cool and then put in jars along with oregano and parsley finely chopped. add 3/4 white vinegar and top up with water and a touch of oil. the oil helps the herbs stick to the squid when taken out of the jars.leave overnight minimum and enjoy!!!feel free to add different flavours and pickling advice Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kingsley 19 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 Sounds the goods.Hopefully I'll get into a fair bit of squid this summer, might have to look into pickling some. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pellipeeli11 0 Posted September 27, 2008 Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 hi jewievery similar to mine ,dont you use the wings/flaps or the two large finger type pieces inside the head? also the wings are great fried in butter ,ginger and chilli.they have a unusual texture when you bite thru (like a crunch ,but not from cooking to a crisp)Sometimes i will score the flesh first if big wings.yum yum Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jewie 3 Posted September 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 i have froze the wings for bait but might try em if you think they are ok....i found an easy way to get the tentacles off in one piece today. cut below the eyes and slice em off, then flip it over and pull the beak off.doing some more later tonight.
