  • Clean the membranes off the squid tubes (thaw them first if frozen), pull out the clear quill, and rinse well. Boil in salted water for 2–3 minutes, then lift out and let cool. Slice into rings. Peel the red onion and cut it into half-rings. Halve the chile, remove the seeds, and slice it the same way. For the dressing: rinse the cranberries (thaw first if frozen), peel and finely grate the ginger, and wash, dry, and zest the lemon on a fine grater. Put it all in a blender (reserve a few cranberries to garnish), add the mayonnaise, and blend until smooth. Combine the squid rings, onion, and chile in a bowl, add the dressing, and toss. Refrigerate for about 2 hours. To serve, mound the salad on a flat plate and top with cranberries. For the dressing you can also use ground dried ginger (5 g, about 1 tsp) and dried lemon zest (5 g).
