Inihaw na Pusit

When I'm at the beach, I always crave to eat inihaw na pusit (grilled squid). So last week end, my boo and I bought a kilo of squid at Php 120.00. To make it incredibly delicious, we marinated the squid in a mixture of soy sauce, kalamansi (limes), and some cracked black pepper for about few minutes.

When the fire is ready, we set the grill a bit further from the flames so that it is not too hot. Grill the squid until just cooked, usually not longer than 3-5 minutes. If you don’t cook it enough it has an unpleasant raw chewiness, if it goes too long it becomes like chewing gum. The perfect point is when it has a few grill marks, the skin is cooked through but it is still light and spongy in a way.

Finally... aaah! *rubbing belly*... Busog na!
