Adobong Pusit Squid Adobo Recipe -  is a tasty squid dish cooked using the popular Filipino adobo method. Squid is first boiled in soy sauce and vinegar then later sautéed in garlic, onions and tomatoes; this brings in an awesome array of flavors that will surely activate your taste buds.
Technically, any squid will do for this recipe. However, small to medium sized squids are highly recommended because they are more flavorful compared to the large ones. It is hard to find fresh medium squids here in Illinois: this was the reason why I waited until I got to the Philippines to shoot this Adobong Pusit video. It was quite a short vacation but I made sure to make the most out of the short time that I got.
like this dish because of its rich flavor – it also brings-in a sense of nostalgia which reminds me of the good times that I had when I was still home.

Since this is a squid dish, make sure that you don’t cook the squid longer than the indicated time to preserve the tender texture. If in case the texture of the squid becomes rubbery due to over cooking, try cooking it some more. You see – there are two ways to ensure that the squid that you are cooking is tender: you can either cook it for a short time or add more cooking time as you usually do for pork.

The all-time favorite adobo is a classic easy-to-cook dish that almost every Pinoywould love to eat. Philippines, being an archipelago, boasts of this dish that contains a flavorful taste and aroma. Each region has its own unique version, from the main ingredient, choice of meat, and how-to’s of cooking. However, these differences end up to only one feedback – greatly delicious!

Adobong pusit is my personal favorite. It never fails to please my taste buds, and I always feel like I can eat it every day. Pusit (squid) is very rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals, hence it is very much recommended for those health conscious people out there. Just be aware of your allergies. This favorite meal can be prepared as easy as two steps.

You may also consider the choice of squid when buying in the market. Excellent for this dish are the smaller varieties since their meat will be tender and juicy. Their ink also adds flavor to your adobo once cooked. Bigger squids are best for calamares (fried breaded squid). Lastly, always check the odor (it should not have a fishy smell) and the appearance (squid eyes should be clear) before buying your squid. They will really affect your dish.

Hope that helps! Happy cooking and eating!
