Dried squid

Overview

The street smelled of squid, but there was no way to deal with the squid. How to make dried squid white and tender? I've never cared much about it. I don't encounter squid very often. I'm neither good at it nor have any special preferences. Why bother asking for trouble? But there is trouble coming to your door. A pack of dried squid, three pieces, had been there for a long time and I was too lazy to move them. Although I later found a way to soak dried squid, I was still too lazy to do it. Once again, the dried squid was cleaned out from the corner. Finally, I made up my mind to accomplish the task in one go - since it was a troublesome task, I simply soaked three squids at once and froze them if I couldn't eat them! There should be no problem with frozen squid, right? The magic weapon is sodium hydroxide. I didn't expect that this thing I brought back for the German lye bread could come in handy here. Of course, you must pay attention to safety when using it and do not come into direct contact with the alkali solution. After a long process of soaking, rinsing, soaking, repeated rinsing, and repeated soaking, the squid finally went from dry to moist, showing a tender flesh color. . . . Now that my hair has healed, what should I eat? This is also a problem. . .
