Reviving Dried Squids
The first time I tried reviving dried squids was quite an experience. I soaked them in water with 1 tbsp of baking soda for one day in the refrigerator, followed by another day in clean water. After this process, the squids became fresh again. They had a tender texture similar to fresh squids and were three times thicker than the dried versions.
Some people soaked with beer, but I don't have beer to soak!
Typically, the only method I had seen for preparing dried squids was grilling, which makes them very chewy. However, this method is much better because it makes the squids tenderize and reduces the fishy smell. I would definitely do this again.
