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.

I made this because I found daikon and squid on sale...If the heat is too strong while stewing, the squid will become tough, so please cook on low heat. It's also tasty with potatoes. Recipe by Fukushimasan

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 learned it from my mother.Don't overcook the squid. For 2 servings. Recipe by xxprsxx

While trying to cope through the summer heat, I sought a simmered dish that would be delicious even chilled.Adjust the heat so that there is broth leftover. It's also good if it's chilled in the fridge before eating. This is lightly seasoned, so adjust to your liking. Recipe by marriott

My mother passed down this recipe to me.Cut the daikon radish into semicircular slices or into your desired shapes. If you simmer the squid too long, it gets hard, so please cook it for a short time. Simmered dishes absorb the flavours when they are cooled. Let it cool down, and warm it up again before eating for an even better taste. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

It's our family's staple dish using the combination of taro root, daikon radish, and squid.If you simmer the squid too long, it gets hard, so please take it out after getting the dashi from it. I kept a little bit of sticky texture from the taro root by omitting the parboiling process. Recipe by Midofadobeshi

If you use a pressure cooker, even squid will turn out soft, so I wanted to give it a try.If you leave the dish to rest for a while, the squid and the daikon radish will absorb more of the simmering sauce. Recipe by Haruchan no daidokoro

For my recent companion who likes Japanese flavors:* Squid Daikon* Burdock root (gobo), carrots, and green beans wrapped in chicken tenders and fried* Tamagoyaki (pan-fried rolled egg) with mentaiko (spiced roe) and green onion* Simmered arame-type kelp* Rice with black bean and mixed grains* Takuan (pickled daikon radish)Boil the daikon until it's soft.First bring the simmering sauce's flavoring ingredients to a strong boil before adding adding the squid.Don't overcook the squid; it gets hard.The broth will be squid scented.Add the water to the sauce, and then let the daikon absorb all the flavors as it simmers in the squid-scented sauce.The squid is added back in to simmer again at the end, so the squid and the daikon are both tender.

Julienned daikon radish with scallops and mayo is a common household dish that's loved by everyone, so I decided to turn it into a simmered dish.If you use the water that you washed the rice with to parboil the daikon, they will become very tender.. Recipe by Raby

Oisii Daikon Season has arrived! I miss my mom’s cooking. So, I tried to make it myself for the first time. Please adjust the amount of seasoning for your preferences.

I make this dish when I can get my hands on cheap squid!I love the tender squid cooked in the pressure cooker.Be sure to add the squid innards! It won't smell fishy even if you add them but, if you're still a bit reluctant, I recommend adding one red chili pepper to cover the smell. Recipe by Momiji mama
