Squid in Its Ink
I remember how little squid in its ink appealed to me when I was a young girl, and how surprised I was when I finally decided to taste it for the first time. I liked it so much that I swore up and down to make up for lost time and cook and eat it as often as I could. Fortunately, this classic of Spanish cuisine is very easy to prepare and only requires a handful of basic ingredients, so it’s a recipe within everyone’s reach.
