      Street Vendor Curried Squid

The area has changed immensely and most of the wholesalers my mom bought from are no longer there but I have vivid memories of these days. My brother and I would play hide and seek among the racks of clothes, boxes, and shelves until my mom would get annoyed and tell my father to take us. My father, who did not have nearly as much power as my mother, could only entice us to listen to him without promises of ice cream or food from the street vendors.We ate from tons of street carts during these Sundays for years and one of the things I craved most after we stopped going, was the Curried Squid.

      More Whale Than Squid
      During August heat waves, I sometimes took my 3 ½ year-old son and 1 ½ year-old daughter to the American Museum of Natural History. The marvelous dinosaur exhibit, on the fourth floor, includes mostly real fossils. No one wants them to crumble in the heat and humidity, so the museum is nicely air-conditioned.  I kept my daughter in a stroller, which she hated. Like my son before her, she soon learned to loosen the harness and scramble out, Houdini-like, while I read to them out loud about the Mesozoic era. They needed to run around, after holing up in the basement for days, and then following my desperate pleas and/or threats to stay still and quiet in the library. We packed lunch from home, which wasn’t permitted in the museum cafeteria. But if I shrugged and my children smiled from our back corner table, the guard usually winked okay. Both toddlers napped for two hours or more every afternoon. That’s when I wrote. In those days I believed my novels would find a publis

Drop the rings onto a couple of layers of absorbent kitchen towel, to remove excess oil. Serve quickly, piping hot, with quarters of lemon to squeeze on top.

      Black Pepper Squid
      I couldn't get over the Black Pepper Crayfish I cooked yesterday and I just eat it again. Sooo, I just had to cook it again today but with squid, which was suppose to be for another dish.Squid taste nice with black pepper. I had cooked Grilled Squid with Black Pepper some time back. Grilled squid is tough with overcooked. The one is just nice - chewy but tender.For this dish, I cut down the black pepper to 2 tablespoons and chilli was not added too. Oh, I also reduced the water to just 2 tablespoons as this doesn't need too much cooking to get the flavours in it. You can do the same if you are using Prawns.In case you are wondering how I cut the squid, I sliced across the squid leaving about a centimeter from the edge. It looked like the squid had lots of rings attached. After which, I half it. When you fried it, it will curl and look like a flower, pretty.Okay, enough. No more black pepper dish for me liao.http://feeds.feedburner.com/wokkingmum

      Bus-sized squid washes up on beach
      HOBART, Australia (AP) — A squid as long as a bus and weighing 550 pounds washed up on an Australian beach, officials said Wednesday. The giant squid was found by a beachcomber on the Australian island state of Tasmania. “It is a whopper,” said Genefor Walker-Smith, a zoologist who studies invertebrates at the Tasmanian Museum. Giant squid live in waters off southern Australia and New Zealand — where a half-ton colossus, believed to be the world’s largest, was caught in February. They attract the sperm whales that feed on them.The dead squid, measuring 3 feet across at its widest point and 26 feet from the tip of its body to the end of its tentacles, was found early Wednesday by a beachcomber at Ocean Beach on the island state of Tasmania’s west coast, the museum said. The squid was expected to be taken to the museum, where DNA and other scientific tests would be carried out before it is preserved and possibly put on public display. For anyone thi

      Giant Squid Caught By New Zealand Fishermen
      A giant squid was caught by fishermen in New Zealand, measuring nearly 40 feet long (about the size of a school bus), just a few feet short of a Colossal Squid. It is believed to be the first time a squid of this size has ever been captured. Here is the video from MSNBC. In September, a team of Japanese oceanographers filmed a live 42.6 foot (13 m) giant squid for the first time ever.The researchers lured the squid with a long line fitted with squid bait and dangling hooks that were designed to snag the creature when it went for the bait. The device had worked once before with the giant Architeuthisa and researchers had taken many still photographs. This is the first time the enormous squid has been filmed on video in its natural habitat. Once the squid was hooked, it took the creature more than four hours to detach itself, losing a 15-foot portion of one of its tentacle in the process. (The PETA folks are going to love that!)"It was exciting to get a live Architeuthis tentacle. It was

      Masala Tumeric Squid With Coconut Cream
      Calamarrrrri ... I just love the way this fancy word for "squid" sounds, especially when I let the last syllable slowly roll off my tongue. With much anticipation from Rasa Malaysia, Claude and Schneier, I am more than happy to share my Masala Tumeric Squid recipe using my home made sambal paste. Yes, I'm spilling the beans. You would be surprised to discover that it is not as difficult as you think to diversify your taste buds. Something new, something old and something intoxicating.As I have mentioned in my Shrimp Stir Fry with Curry Leaves recipe, tumeric spice is simply great. It adds much flavor to any spicy dish without the "spicy-hot"ness. When using tumeric spice in cooking, not only does it add that mild aromatic flavor to your food, it also helps in removing odors in raw seafood and meats. It is definitely the next best thing to ginger !!In Thai and Malaysian cuisine, kaffir lime leaves is one of the few favorite herbs when cooking many hot curries, spicy dishes and chinese

      10 manta rays and 3 squid at the night dive off the Kona airport last night.
      We did another night trip last night. We're back to the slower season so we've been going out a hair less frequently. I've got intro divers tomorrow daytime and then almost a week off (assuming no phonecalls in the meanwhile) with charters on 7 of the last 9 days of the month.The water last night was quite sloppy, and it made for a bumpy trip, but the diving was still great. It was a great manta show, Bob lead the dives (they saw 3 mantas on the first dive) and said with 10 mantas on the second dive it was a great time. I think all the divers had their heads bumped several times by manta rays.There were 3 squid on the dive. I'm pushing 2000 dives here, with about a couple hundred of them being night dives, and I've yet to see a squid. We've had a pair of them showing up off and on for the last month, I missed them one night I was down, and apparently there were three on Monday and last night. I'm hoping they keep showing up. If there's food for them on the dive they'll

      Fried Fritters with Squid Paste in Salad Cream
      I cook this once in a blue moon when we are all sick of eating the usual vegetable and meat dishes. It's like a snack to go with beer…Ingredients: 2 pair of fried fritters, cubed ½ bowl of squid paste Salad Sauce: ½ bowl of salad cream 1 tablespoon sugar 1 tablespoon condensed milk 1 teaspoon lemon juiceHow to do it:Mix all the ingredients of the salad sauce and set aside. Spread some squid paste on 1 side of the fried fritters. Deep fry the fried fritters with the squid paste till golden brown. Pour the salad cream on the fried fritters and mix well. Serve. My hubby likes this but he compliant that the fried fritters are too big for him to chew properly. Man … why can't he finish in 2 bites instead on 1? Okay lah. I will take note.Note: If you can't get squid paste, you can make your own. Remove the skin, head and the soft bone from the squid. Leaving only the main part. Mince it and mix with some cornflour. There you have it. And it taste better then the ready made one.

      Spicy Buttered Squid
      Firstly I would like to apologize for my long absence due to my holiday. Today's simple and quick Spicy Buttered Squid recipe was prepared during the holidays with my family and relatives. It has been quite some time since I saw some of my uncles and aunties residing in Sweden and Singapore and it was great to get to know my cousins as well. At times I must admit it was kinda awkward but family bond is truly a magical thing. During the last day before I departed, we exchanged emails and vowed to keep in touch and I can't helped but wonder how fantastic the internet have brought us somehow closer with each other.Ingredients3 lb Squids - cleaned and sliced into 1/2" wide rings5 CilipadiCilipadi (Bird Chili) - sliced into small pieces2 stalks of Curry LeavesCurry Leaves - sliced in half3 cloves of GarlicGarlic - sliced2 tbsp salted ButterSalt to tasteBlack Pepper to tasteDirections1] To clean squid, remove purplish skin, separate the head from the body.2] Wash the inside of the squid bo
