Squid, Rovinj, Croatia



Squid, Rovinj, Croatia

Saw very fresh squids in the market, the lady is careful to point out, to tourist like me, that this is not the usual squid, it is harder.

On close inspection, the side flaps are smaller and closer to the pointy end.  The transparent thin backbone is tiny, nearly non-existent. After cooking, it turns bright red (I left the thin spotty membrane on).

The texture is not tough, but a harder crunch than normal ones, very tasty though. Learn something everyday.
