Cooking tips

  • Slicing the squid into little finger thickness without making cuts allows more flavor to extract from the skin and improves chewiness.
  • Using cooking wine instead of water when adjusting sauce consistency helps eliminate the fishy smell and adds shine and sweetness.
  • Adding vegetables after the squid causes the squid to overcook and become tough, so always stir-fry vegetables first to remove moisture.
  • After boiling, rinse the noodles vigorously under running water until no starch remains; this ensures they stay soft and don’t harden over time.

Recommended for

  • Those who enjoy a spicy, rich, and sticky sauce with no moisture in every bite.
  • People looking to serve an impressive main dish or appetizer with squid stir-fry paired with thin noodles.
  • Anyone wanting to learn a fail-proof universal stir-fry sauce usable for cuttlefish, squid, and other seafood dishes.
