Squid (previously frozen)
Are you squeamish about squid? Don't let this strange creature with its tube-like body and tentacles on its head unnerve you. Just watch this New York Times video (http://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1014711-sauteed-squid-with-chiles-mint-and-lime) and see how easy it is to prepare. The squid we are are featuring this week will come to you already cleaned and ready to cook. You'll get a mixture of squid tubes and tentacles. Just rinse and cook. Previously frozen.
Besides frying, there are many healthier ways to cook squid—it can be grilled, sautéed, roasted, or, you can stuff it with any number of things. Seafood Watch rates it a "Good Alternative." Low mercury level.
