Ingredients

Squid has a tubular body with fins at one end and tentacles at the other. The body is covered with a thin skin flecked with red. After washing, this is removed and the tentacles and head are separated from the body. The clear bone and associated membrane, which are attached to the head, are discarded. Then, the eyes and ink sac are cut away, the hard beak is removed, and the squid is washed again.
It is suitable to cook Tom Yum, BBQ, and deep fried (calamari).
