Apple cider vinegar…1 teaspoon
Extra virgin olive oil…2 tablespoons
Salt…appropriate amount
Coarsely ground pepper…appropriate amount
Italian parsley…appropriate amount

【How to make】
(1) Slice the new onion thinly, spread it on a plate, and let it sit for a while.
(2) Remove the cartilage and membranes from the squid, cut the body into rounds, and cut the rest into bite-sized pieces, then quickly blanch in boiling water.
(3) Peel the sweet summer.
(4) Put apple cider vinegar and olive oil in a bowl, mix well, add (1), (2), and (3), and season with salt.

【point】
When making a marinade, spread out the thinly sliced new onions and expose them to the air for a while to retain the nutritional content and lose some of the spiciness, making them easier to eat. New onions are fruity, so they go well with fruits.
