When the cucumber was in season... I often had this menu at my parent's house.
This is my mother's signature recipe.
I added a little extra to make an authentic Chinese-style? And I am working on it.

- I used cuttlefish this time, but you can also use todarodes pacificus (My mother makes it using things like octopus or shrimp.)
- When using a big cucumber with lots of seeds, scrape the seeds off with a spoon before using it.
- Make sure not to cook both squid and cucumber too much.
Add garlic if you like. For 2 to 3 servings. Recipe by rie-tin
