Yes. I was expecting the whest Limerick roasters to go into full on apoplectic shock over this one, and as always they never disappoint. Turned out sensational, as good as anything I’ve tasted in Spain. There are some excellent risotto and pasta dishes made with squid ink.

I’ve used it in risotto before, didn’t notice much in the way of flavour, I only got a tiny bit,
theres a restaurant in limerick uses it in their calamari and it’s lovely.
That paella looked great, is it a special set up for paella you have there?

The flavor is subtle, it’s briny rather than fishy and perfectly complements seafood.

The problem with making paella is anything larger than the smallest pan won’t fit on a stove so you can’t get even cooking. They make these yokes in various sizes, this one handles an 18 inch pan.

what do you use to dip the food into chlorine before you cook it?

All you need is to keep the liquid simmering so between 95 and 100C. To form a perfect socarrat, which is the goal of any paella project, you need evenly spread consistent heat and absolutely no stirring of the rice allowed.
