directions
- Cut squid into desired serving pieces leaving as rings - see below.
- Mix soy sauce, sugar, salt & pepper together in a flat dish and marinate overnight, turning occasionally.
- Drain the squid and pat dry with paper towel.
- Carefully thread squid rings over skewers leaving a bit of space in between and place over the top of oven racks so the squid is hanging down between the racks.
- Set oven to 50C / 120F and dry for 4 hours with something in place to keep the door open an inch or so. If you want to keep the rings round you'll need to periodically turn as the squid starts to dry.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
<p>I live close Hobart in Tasmania, a wonderful part of Australia but a little chilly in winter so be sure to book your holiday for summer! I'm self-employed in the embedded electronics area and being at home most of the day gives me plenty of time to prepare those recipes with long preparation and cooking times. As most of my clients are either interstate or overseas I get to occasionally catch up with them and enjoy their local restaurants, always nice to have someone else paying the bills! <br /> <br />As well as food I'm partial to the odd beer & wine, so often like to go to a local pub and catch some local bands. No need for an alarm clock in the morning, my cat Molly likes her breakfast at 8:00AM sharp and makes an effective alarm! Lately I've been starting to get into some digital photography so you might be seeing a few additional recipe shots on Zaar... <br /> <br /><a href=http://www.satsleuth.com/VisitorMap/stats.php?id=vUa1ya8Z> <br /><img src=http://www.satsleuth.com/VisitorMap/globes/Globe_vUa1ya8Z.gif alt= /></a></p>
