Procedure

Preparation

Squid

Carefully remove skin from squid.

Cut into long narrow strips, then cut strips into about 1 inch lengths.

Very lightly salt and pepper the squid strips and let stand about ten minutes.

Batter

Mix dry ingredients in a medium mixing bowl.

Add water and whisk quickly. (Don't over-mix)

The resulting batter should be slightly thicker than tempura batter

Cooking

Heat cooking oil over high heat (350 degrees or test with a drip of batter - oil is hot when oil bubbles and batter floats to surface almost immediately)

Dredge individual squid strips with flour, dip in batter, and fry until a light golden brown.

Serve with Choganjang.
