Welcome to Weirdsville: They Who Lurk Below by M. Christian

[Eeegor]

Be cautioned: this month's expedition into the odd and the unusual has a certain ... well, shall we say Miskatonic atmosphere-- a shuffling, looming presence that waits just on the edge of our safe domain to ravish our bodies as well as our very souls.

This makes me wonder what manner of creature will come into being long after I'm dead. If we are to put stock in the theory of evolution, (which I do) living things are constantly adapting to changes in the environment; humanity has vastly accelerated the rate of change in all of the Earth's ecosystems and, as a result, greatly affected the organisms within them. Most species seem unable to cope with the speed and moment of these changes, but some of them may yet survive. Who knows what kind of things will be produced by the combination of evolutionary processes and careless human meddling?

Squid in Lemon Ginger Sauce


Ingredients:
4 Squid
1/4 Cup Mushrooms, Sliced
2 tsp Sugar
1 Piece Fresh Ginger, Peeled
2 Tbls Lemon Juice
2 tsp Oil
1 Cube Chicken Bouillon
3 Medium Zucchini
1 Tbls Soy Sauce

1/2 Cup Water
SAUCE: 2 tsp Cornstarch




Prepare the sauce first: Blend the cornstarch and sugar in a small bowl with the lemon juice. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Set aside. Prepare the squid: Hold the squid in one hand. Hold the head and gently pull with the other hand. The head and inside of the body will come away in a complete piece. Remove the bone found at the open end of the squid (it looks like a long piece of plastic). Clean the squid under cold water. Rub off the outer skin. Cut the squid evenly into rings. Cut the ginger into wafer thin slices. Finely shred the wafers of ginger. Drop the squid into a saucepan of boiling water. Boil for 10 seconds. Remove immediately. Drain. Heat the oil in the wok or large skillet. Stir fry the zucchini for 2 minutes. Add the ginger, squid and mushrooms. Stir fry for 2 minutes. Add the sauce. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture boils and thickens. Serve hot.
