Gray Cuttlefish Pesto Bread

I'm embarrassed to call it squid bread, but it does use squid ink. . . When I first saw the ink dripping from the belly of the frozen cuttlefish, I immediately thought of Teacher Meng's pitch-black cuttlefish bread - which was put on hold indefinitely because of the lack of cuttlefish powder. Thinking that cuttlefish powder might be derived from dried cuttlefish juice, I quickly collected and froze the cuttlefish juice to wait until one day to make cuttlefish bread a reality. However, as I often say recently, don’t wait until the future. Almost all “later” is abolished in the present and will never be continued without context. The squid ink has been frozen for several months, until the ink bread inadvertently passed by, it seemed to open up a dusty past. Teacher Meng’s cuttlefish bread was finally awakened. There is no future, just now. I saw that other people’s squid ink bread only used a few grams of ink to produce such a jet-black bread. Likewise, only a small amount of ink was used. However, the result was very unexpected. The pitch-black ink quickly spread into the dough and disappeared. The dough was only dyed into a light gray. It was impossible to add more ink, so we had to leave it to a gray that was not much darker than white. I couldn't help but lift the dough to the silver handle of the oven and mark it. It seemed that it could be regarded as a light metallic gray. With no other choice, continue with the remaining steps. The pesto could have stood out against the dark surface, but instead was lost in the yellowish skin. On the other hand, it was paprika - there was no Hungarian paprika, so I had to use ordinary chili powder instead - although I only dared to sprinkle a little bit, it suddenly brightened up. Hope it's not too spicy. . . .

Squid ink paella

The content of this issue was very difficult to prepare. Although I had eaten in Shanghai before, it only had rice, so I was not sure about the taste, and there was no seafood. Personally, I think it's similar to Rissoto. I searched other people's practices on the Internet, compared and summarized them, and formed the content of this issue.

Wucai Dumplings

It is said that fish and meat are found in the south and noodles and dumplings are found in the north. In my mind, northern dumplings are an indispensable delicacy for family dinners on the New Year's Eve table. Since dumplings are made every year, I wanted to make this year's New Year's Eve dinner something different. The five ingredients are five kinds of dumplings, which symbolize the five fortunes.

Gray baguette

The jet-black squid bread I was looking forward to turned out to be half white but not gray. I was disappointed and decided to use another bread to get rid of the mess of squid juice. After understanding the huge difference between ordinary squid ink and squid ink used for baking, I no longer look forward to the coal-black bread. I am just curious about what kind of ash the remaining 15 grams of squid ink can turn the dough into. Sure enough, although it was much darker than the previous dough, it was still just a light gray dough. I guess even replacing all the liquid with this squid ink wouldn't be able to replace the jet-black dough. Regardless of whether it is silver gray or grandma gray, the dough that has been started still needs to be completed to the end. Put away all the fancy stuff and just have a simple baguette. The gray dough is indeed not very pleasing to the eye. As you look at it, it slowly turns slightly golden. The moment it comes out of the oven, you can actually smell the faint smell of the sea. Cuttlefish? ! Simple salty bread, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. . . .
