What to do with boiled squid that turned out “rubbery”: a surefire way to save the dish
One of the most popular ways to cook squid is boiling, which, it would seem, should not cause any difficulties.
However, the slightest disturbance in the heat treatment process results in the meat becoming tough and rubbery.
What should you do in this situation so that you don’t have to throw seafood in the trash?
Fortunately, you can save the dish even if you overcook the squid in boiling water.
In this case, the carcass should be placed in water or broth and stewed for half an hour.
After such a “procedure,” the squid will become elastic again, although not as tasty and aromatic as if it had been cooked according to all the rules.
Therefore, let us remind you once again how to cook squid so as not to be disappointed in its taste.
Frozen seafood should be dipped in boiling water for a minute, then turn off the heat and keep them in the water for about 3 more minutes.
