Cooking tips

  • The key to this dish is maintaining very low heat throughout or turning off the heat during cooking to avoid burning.
  • Avoid adding too much oligosaccharide syrup or corn syrup—excess amounts can cause the dish to harden and clump when cooled, so use only the recommended amount.
  • Stir-frying without oil first removes the characteristic fishy aroma of squid and results in a much softer texture.
  • When purchasing, choose squid strands with a natural creamy hue rather than overly white ones, which may contain added coloring.

Recommended for

  • Those who have struggled with squid strands sticking together or becoming hard and dry in past attempts.
  • People looking to make a smooth, rich side dish that can be prepared ahead.
  • Anyone wanting a clean, fresh-tasting squid strands stir-fry without the typical fishy odor.
