Stuffed Squid ?

[gaddy]

Any one got a good stuffed squid recipe? Been many years ago but I had a friend from Boston that did some for us that had meat, mushrooms, and some kind of cheese in it??. Was just remembering and remembered that I liked it. Id have to buy squid but just throwing it out there for discussion.

Doesn't the squid turn to rubber when you cook it that long? I had always heard the rule of thumb with Squid is cook it for either two minutes or two hours otherwise it's going to be rubbery... But never actually tried it any other way.

I’m guessing they left out the part where you cook the sausage first?

Yes boatloader, That's the Beauty of this Squid Recipe. The Squid, acts like Rubber Band "Rings" holding the Sausage into nicely shaped Pattie's...Rubbery? Yes, but who doesn't like the taste of Sausage over Squid any day .

Interesting. I think I would try cooking the sausage first. Then grilling the squid hot and fast for 1-2 minutes.

Those squid are quite a bit bigger than the little Opals we get in the sound.

If it were me, I'd saute some loose sausage, shallot, garlic, thyme, white wine, lemon juice and capers for until almost done and then add the squid rings right at the end. Not stuffed squid, exactly, but same basic concept. Serve it over penne or polenta.
