How to cook Adobong Pusit sa Gata Recipe
Adobong Pusit sa Gata Recipe Like the ginisang pusit we have in our recipe archive, adobong pusit sa gata begins with first simmering the squid in vinegar and then sauteing in onions, garlic and tomatoes. They are, however, differentiated by the addition of coconut milk and chili peppers to the latter for a richer and bolder flavor.
Although squid is an easy ingredient to prepare, it can also prove a bit tricky. It cooks in a flash and can considerably toughen even with a few extra minutes in the pan. A good pot of ginataang pusit is kinda like a balancing act. You want that delicious stage where the coconut milk has reduced enough to render fat but without overcooking the squid. To achieve a thick sauce while maintaining the tenderness of the squid, I apply a two-part cooking process. I briefly simmer the squid adobo-style in vinegar and I then cook off the coconut-based sauce before returning the squid back to the pan to soak up all the creamy goodness. Try it for dinner tonight and please let me know what you think.
