Step 1: prepare the squid.

I prefer to take unrefined squids, because cleaning them yourself is very simple and you will be sure that this is not done in a harmful chemical way. So, squid carcasses need to be thawed, for this, put them under a stream of cool running water. Once the icing has melted, use your fingers to feel the thin chitin plate and pull it out. Peel the peel like a film, gradually pulling it off the squid carcass.
Place clean squids on a cutting board and cut them into thin rings with a knife.

Step 2: Prepare the herbs and garlic.

Fill parsley and dill in a colander and rinse several times with warm water, shake, removing excess moisture. Then put clean, fresh herbs on a cutting board and chop with a knife. And this can also be done with special kitchen scissors.
Peel the garlic cloves and cut off the tips. And just like greens, grind this ingredient with a knife.

Step 3: Prepare the vegetables.

Carrots need to be peeled, it is easiest to remove it with a special knife for peeling vegetables. After that, the bright orange beauty should be washed under warm running water, washing off the remnants of the adhering earth. Grind clean vegetables with a medium grater.
Peel the bulbs from the husks and cut off the leftovers from the roots and tops. After cleaning, chop the onion in any way convenient for you, for example, rings or half rings.
From peeled and chopped vegetables, we will cook the frying, which will become the basis for our dish. To do this, chop the pan and heat the oil in it. Then put the carrots and onions there and fry everything over medium heat until almost ready, that is 7-10 minutes.

Step 4: Stew squid with carrots and onions.

When you sufficiently fry the vegetables, do not stop cooking, pour the squid rings there. Add black ground pepper and salt, stew all together. 3-4 minutes. Do not forget to mix.


After the amount of time necessary for cooking, add sour cream to the squid with vegetables and mix the contents of the pan again. Bring the sour cream to a boil and cover, simmer the dish in this form 2-3 minutes.


After the specified time, add chopped greens and pieces of garlic to the pan. Stir, once again bring the sour cream to a boil and remove from heat. Squids with sour cream and carrots are ready, you can start serving.

Step 5: Serve the squid with sour cream and carrots.

Squids with sour cream and carrots are served only in hot form. It’s best to add a neutral side dish, such as boiled potatoes or rice. Pour abundantly each serving with sour cream sauce that has gathered at the bottom of the pan. That's all, start your meal and enjoy the wonderful taste of seafood stewed in sour cream with carrots and aromatic spices.
Enjoy your meal!

If you have on hand a spice such as coriander, then mix it with black pepper and add to the dish while cooking.

Due to the temperature difference, the peel itself will move away from the meat, it remains only to remove it with your fingers, you can do this after such a procedure with almost no effort.

Squid in sour cream sauce is very tasty and tender. They can be eaten even by those who follow their figure. It is nutritious and simple!

Probably, every housewife sometimes wants to cook something like that, surprise her beloved husband, family or guests invited to dinner. If you want to cook something unusual for dinner, squid stewed in sour cream sauce will do just fine!

So, let's figure out how to choose the right squid in the store, how to cook it best and go over a couple of the best recipes with squid!

How to choose the right squid

Like any meat or fish, squid should be chosen with extreme caution. There are certain subtleties.

So, the first rule:  When buying squid, make sure that the carcass has not been defrosted (that is, it has been thawed and frozen again). This technique is a gross violation of all food storage rules. The newly frozen product will be bitter and creep out in an unappetizing mass during the preparation process.

How to make sure that the squid was not frozen before it hit the counter? There should be little ice on such carcasses, and they should not stick together. The skin can be of any color - this does not depend on the quality of the product itself, but on the type of mollusk, but here the meat under it must be white.

Otherwise, the seafood must have been thawed, and after that the meat turned into a skin color.

Rule Two:  do not be lazy and take ready-made fillet. There are more than a hundred subspecies of squid, and only a few dozen of them are edible. Whole small carcasses we sell squid Patagonian or commander.

They are sold unpeeled and usually with entrails. Such squids on the counter do not look very presentable, but they have excellent taste. And the fillet that we meet in the store is the meat of a giant Peruvian squid.

It usually has a strong ammonia flavor, and it is re-frozen and processed several times - such a product will not do you any good. In addition, the meat of a giant clam is much tougher than that of others.

Rule Three:  be sure to check the carcass peel for any kind of damage. It should not have any cracks, tears or other defects. Otherwise, it becomes clear that this product was not stored properly.

How to prepare the product

After you raided the store and correctly selected a couple of fresh squids for your future dinner, a new question arises: how should the squids be cleaned properly?

Step One: First you need to separate your head and remove all the insides. You can easily determine where the squid's head is, by the presence of small tentacles. You need to grab the squid's head with your hand and, holding the carcass with your other hand, pull it towards yourself - so you can easily remove the insides.

Step Two: Next, you need to get rid of the chitin plate inside the carcass. It is easily groped and removed just as easily.

Step Three: Now you need to remove all the transparencies. It is necessary to get rid of both color and transparent films both outside and inside - during heat treatment these films become very stiff. The best way to get rid of the films is to quickly scald the carcasses with boiling water, and then transfer them to ice water. The peel and film instantly curl up and will be easy to peel off.

Seafood has a low calorie content, contains a lot of protein, phosphorus and other necessary elements. In dietary nutrition they are indispensable. One of the most affordable varieties of seafood is squid. If you are unable to cook it, you can get pieces resembling rubber instead of a delicious dish, but with proper preparation, these mollusks will surprise you with a delicate, refined taste. Squids in sour cream sauce are successful even for inexperienced chefs. You just need to choose a recipe and learn a few technological subtleties.

Cooking features

At first glance, the squid process may seem complicated. But experience comes quickly. Over time, cooking seafood will not take much time and effort. Master the technology of cooking squid in sour cream sauce will help the advice of experienced chefs:

• An important role is played by the quality of the products. The main one is squid. If it has been thawed and frozen repeatedly, its structure will be violated, during cooking it will become tough. Damage to carcasses, a large layer of ice, snow and water covering them in a seafood bag indicate that the product was defrosted. It is better to refuse such a purchase.
• Some customers are confused by the purple, pink or yellowish color of the squid skin. You cannot determine the degree of freshness of a product by its shade, the color can be any - it depends only on the variety of squid. But his meat should be white, not painted in other colors.
• The peeled squid carcasses look attractive on the shelves, but experts bypass them, giving preference to uncut mollusks. The meat of the giant Peruvian squid is often sold to the peeled ones, and the commando and Patagonian squids are sold unpeeled. The former are harsh, the meat of the latter is tender and soft, cooks quickly.
• If you know how to properly cut squid, it will take only 5-10 minutes. First of all, you need to separate the head with tentacles, pulling it and removing the insides with it. Then the carcass needs to be turned out to remove the chord (this can be done without turning the mollusk out). After that, the squid carcass is placed for a minute in boiling water, then transferred to a container with cold water - from these procedures, the film on the surface is folded and easily washed off with running water.
• Do not exceed the recommended cooking time for the squid, especially if you boil it. Otherwise, his meat will become tough, like rubber. If during the extinction of the mollusk it became necessary to add water, use hot water so that the protein does not change its structure due to temperature differences.
