Radish and squid soup: a seafood dish in Northern Jiangsu rural banquet

Introduction:

"In my hometown, although the nearby county is close to the sea, a lot of seafood is sold to Hangzhou and Shanghai, not locally. Therefore, even if it is so close to the sea, we can only eat dry seafood or pickled food, never fresh. At the red and white wedding banquet of farmers, or during the Spring Festival, every family must have a seafood dish, 90% of which is shredded radish and squid soup, and 10% is shredded radish and light vegetable soup. Of course, there are some other seafood products, such as drunk snails, pickled crabs and hairtail, but they can't be served as the main course. At most, they can only be served as side dishes. Of course, with the improvement of living conditions, there are many other seafood choices. This soup has become more and more homely, not only for dinner. But the position of this squid soup in the banquet is still unshakable. Maybe I've been used to eating since childhood. My husband and I have a special preference for it. Unfortunately, there are few squid like to sell in Wuxi. A few days ago, when I went shopping, I saw a fellow townsman selling it. I bought a lot of it excitedly. I made this soup that day, and the familiar warm taste of my hometown came back. "
