Thai Cuisine: Tempura Squid Rings, The Recipe

Cucina thailandese: anelli di calamari in tempura, la ricetta

Thai cuisine: tempura squid rings, the recipe.
Some time ago, while I was on vacation in Vietnam at my wife's house, we had lunch in an excellent Thai restaurant (in fact, Thai cuisine is also very popular in Vietnam) and I tasted this dish, of which I will try to write the recipe for you.

Ingredients:

– 500 g of squid, cleaned and cut into rings;
– 1 cup of rice flour;
– 1 cup of cold sparkling water;
– 1 egg;
– 1 teaspoon of salt;
– 100 grams of panko;
– Oil for frying.

Preparation:

First, let's prepare the batter: in a bowl, mix the rice flour with the cold sparkling water and the egg. Add the salt and mix gently until you get a smooth batter. Do not overmix to avoid the batter becoming too thick.
Heat the oil in a deep pan or in a deep fryer to about 180°C.
Dry the calamari rings well with absorbent paper. Dip each ring in the batter, making sure it is well coated and then pass them in the panko. In the dish I ate in that restaurant, in addition to the traditional batter, there was also some breadcrumbs (panko) to increase the crunchiness.
Fry the calamari rings in small batches to avoid lowering the temperature of the oil too much. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Remove the calamari rings from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Serve the tempura calamari rings hot, accompanied by soy sauce or sweet chili sauce.

The chains in memory of Meloria in Moneglia

Le catene del porto di Pisa in ricordo della Meloria a Moneglia

The chains of the port of Pisa in memory of the Battle of Meloria in Moneglia.
I discovered recently that in Moneglia there are some links of the chains of the port of Pisa, defeated by Genoa in the famous Battle of Meloria.
And, in addition to the chain, also a bas-relief and a plaque that tell the reason for their presence in the Levantine village.

If you have any questions or anecdotes about the tombstone or the battle of Meloria, add a comment. comment or go to the bottom of the site to read what other visitors have written.

I took several photos in the village and if you want to see them all click here:

The Battle of Meloria was a historic naval battle involving the fleet of the Republic of Genoa and that of the Maritime Republic of Pisa. The battle, which took place on August 6, 1284 off the coast of Porto Pisano, greatly weakened the Pisan naval fleet, beginning the slow decline of Pisa as a maritime power in Italy during the Middle Ages.

Anelli di calamaro fritti, la ricetta

Anelli di calamaro fritti

Anelli di calamaro fritti.
Oggi voglio raccontarvi come preparare gli anelli di calamari fritti di casa mia.

Ingredients:
– un calamaro (dipende poi dalla grandezza e dal numero dei commensali se è sufficiente)
– farina
– olio di semi di girasole
– sale
– mezzo limone

La preparazione è veramente semplice: si prende il calamaro (che se non sapete pulire potete farlo fare dalla pescheria) e lo si taglia ad anelli. Si usa tutto il calamaro, anche i tentacolini (che a me sono la parte che piace di più).
Una volta tagliati li si “immerge” nella farina in modo che la loro superficie sia abbondantemente ricoperta da essa.
E ora la cottura in olio.
Mi raccomando che l’olio sia molto caldo.
Un paio di minuti di cottura, girando almeno una volta gli anelli se usate una padella, ed il piatto è pronto.
Poggiateli su un foglio di carta assorbente, per eliminare l’olio in eccesso, e spolverate di sale ed succo di limone.

Questa è la foto del piatto pronto da gustare!
