Simmered Squid and Radish

Squid makes a deep flavored and fragrant broth. And the daikon radish absorb it very well. When it gets cold, the broth soaks into the daikon radish. So heat it when you eat.

I heard from a TV program that squid will turn out tender if you add it to water before boiling.So when making my "simmered daikon radish with squid" recipe I added the squid before boiling, and it came out very tender. Remember to add the squid before bringing everything to a simmer.The squid will be tough and chewy if you cook it over high heat for a long time.The taste penetrates into the daikon radish while cooling off, so cook it for 15-20 minutes, cool it off and warm it up again before serving.If you prefer a strong taste, adjust it by adding more mentsuyu.
