Many forum members hunt, trap and fish. Have you ever caught squid? This one could last for quite awhile.

I saw that earlier in the week. It has the largest eye of any animal ever. Sort of gives you new respect for squidward doesn't it?

Cut squid/octypus in large chunks - reserve. Place carrots, 1 inch potato cubes, onion, and celery (you choose the amounts) in a crockpot with 1 part red wine, 1 part water, salt, pepper, parsley, and garlic to taste. Set crockpot to lowest heat setting. When veggies are almost done, add squid/octypus. Cook until squid/octypus is tender, but do not overcook or it will become like rubber and shrink to nothing. Sorry, I don't measure anything when I cook.

Are they edible?
By that I mean palatable.
I have never read anything about how they rate on the good eats scale.:)

calamari in general or humbolt squid in particular? Calamari is the Italian name for squid, by the way.
