hehehheh!
I did a post on how to clean squid when somebody asked me a few weeks
ago when I got some large squids from the oriental market. Each one was
over 12" long. I grew up cleaning squid with my mom and I do know how to
cook the smaller ones! I've promised to re-post intstructions with
pictures next time I do them. I have that saved to the desktop to remind
me next time the oriental market has them available.

I was just curious what one would do with a 1/2" thick squid steak! <G>

I'd probably slice it thin and either use it in sea food stir fry,
seafood chowder or bread it in spiced corn meal and flour and deep fry
it.

But thanks!!! ;-)
