#HotSummerEats: Sweet Garlic Squid #sponsor


Here we are at day two of my Hot Summer Eats event. As promised, I will be sharing a grilled recipe, a non-lettuce salad, and/or a cocktail. So, for the grilled offering today, here's my recipe for marinated squid...with a little help from one of our event sponsors: T.Lish. T.Lish's Sweet Garlic Vinaigrette was the perfect match for some fresh, pan-grilled squid. This is so simple and so tasty.


Ingredients


Procedure
Clean the squid by removing the beak, the pen, and the innards. I do it in a bowl of cool water, but clean it wherever you wish.


Drain the water when you're finished. Pour enough vinaigrette into to the bowl to cover the squid. Agitate with your hands or a spoon. Let stand for at least 10 minutes. Cook in a grill-pan or over coals.


The squid is done when it is just opaque; don't cook it too long or it will get rubbery. Place the cooked squid in a shallow bowl and pour enough vinaigrette over the top to cover the squid. Let stand for at least 10 or 15 minutes.


Serve at room temperature.


Thanks, T.Lish* - just one of our #HotSummerEats sponsors - for ingredients used in this recipe. You can find T.Lish: on the web, on facebook, on twitter, on instagram, and on pinterest.


*Full Disclosure: I received a bottle of Sweet Garlic Vinaigrette from T.Lish for participating in #HotSummerEats. Feel free to use whatever garlic dressing you have on-hand. I received no additional compensation for this post; all comments are 100% accurate and 100% my own.

  1. I can't tell you how much I love the T-Lish products or at least the two I have tried thus far. I haven't gotten to the Chipotle dressing yet.

Hot Chocolate Agasajo-Style {Spice It Up!}

photo by D For my Spice It Up! kiddos this week, I was looking for an exotic drink to serve while we learned about saffron. I found a recipe from food historian Maricel Presilla that mimicked traditional Spanish hot chocolate from the 17th century where it was served at lavish receptions called agasajos . When I teach, I don't always get to shoot photos. Thankfully, D grabbed my camera and snapped a few. Ingredients serves 14-16 1 gallon organic whole milk 3 T dried rosebuds - or 2 t rosewater 2 t saffron threads, lightly crushed 3 T ground cinnamon 3 whole tepin chiles, crushed 2 vanilla beans, split lengthwise 1 C organic granulated sugar 1 lb. bittersweet chocolate Procedure In a large soup pot that can hold a gallon plus, combine milk, dried rosebuds (or rosewater, if you are using that), saffron threads, ground cinnamon, chiles, vanilla beans, and sugar and warm over medium heat till it steams. Whisk to dissolve sugar, then lower heat an...

Frozen Art Gourmet Ice Cream

As we headed inland from the coast, I cringed as the temperature gauge in the car for outside temp climbed into the triple digits. Ugh. I'm a rather wimpy central coastal Californian who begins to wilt when it's 70 degrees outside. Thank goodness for air conditioning and a planned ice cream stop. When I parked the car outside Frozen Art Gourmet Ice Cream in Santa Rosa, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. We knew that we still had to get to the campsite...and set up our tents in the heat. But we were going to enjoy the cool, sweet treats from Frozen Art first! Michoacana ice creameries are the equivalent of Starbucks in Mexico; they're ubiquitous. Purists, however, claim that operating a true Michoacana ice cream shop require ties to Tocumbo. It's estimated that almost ninety percent of the Tocumban population is currently employed in the ice cream business from making ice cream itself to making equipment. But the real art of Tocumban ice creams: imaginat...
