This is a good way to highlight squid while moving away from the breaded and fried calamari style. The peas and vegetables add a sweetness and help complement the squid flavor while the sauce adds richness and body to the dish. I've found that it is much easier to cook tender sous vide squid than when it is traditionally prepared. The sous vide really tenderizing it first and you just warm it with the further cooking.

This article is by me, Jason Logsdon. I'm an adventurous home cook and professional blogger who loves to try new things, especially when it comes to cooking. I've explored everything from sous vide and whipping siphons to pressure cookers and blow torches; created foams, gels and spheres; made barrel aged co*cktails and brewed beer. I have also written 10 cookbooks on modernist cooking and sous vide and I run the AmazingFoodMadeEasy.com website.
