Simmered colossal squid with giant white radish
You might have read that some lucky scientists have chanced apon a frozen colossal squid weighing 500kg. While they struggle with the process of defrosting the thing without letting it rot, I thought I would scale up a standard simmered squid with giant white radish recipe for them to use when thay are finished with it.
500kg raw squid
250kg of giant white radish
1 bucket full of yuzu rind
1 bathtub full of water
4 buckets full of sake
1 small shovel full of sugar
1 large shovel of soy sauce.
Clean, dry and cut up (with a big knife) the squid
Peel and cut up the radish
Simmer the water, radish, sake and sugar for about half an hour in a box trailer over a low fire
Drop in the squid and simmer for the rest of the day with a sheet of ply wood over the top as a drop lid
Line up a crowd and serve over giant bowls of rice.
Seriously though, I hope they make some interesting discoveries about the squid so that such a beautiful massive creature didn’t die without reason.
