1, first put the dried squid into flowing clean water, and wash all the dirty things on the squid surface, then put the squid into a large plate and soak it in clean water for 2 hours. Note: Clear water must not pass squid.
2. After soaking for 2 hours, the squid has begun to soften, but we can see that the squid is still hard at this time and cannot be cut and fried. We need to pour out the soaked water, then add 5 grams of soda ash to the big plate, continue to add 1 kg of water, stir well, adjust it to five thousandths of alkaline water, then put the squid back on the plate and continue to soak for 4 hours.
3. After soaking in alkaline water for 4 hours, the squid can be fished out and rinsed in flowing clean water. Make sure to rinse off the alkaline water thoroughly. After washing, put the squid on a sieve and drain the water for later use. At this time, you can see that the squid is soaked and the squid is tender and fleshy.
Cooking skills:
1, when soaking dried squid, neither cold water nor hot water can completely soak the squid, and soda ash must be added to soak the dried squid like fresh squid, which is not raw, soft but not rotten and chewy.
2. The soaking time should not be too long, so the soaking time must be controlled. Squid soaked for too long will become too soft and rotten, and lose the flavor of tendons.
