in Old style MoneySaving
Figured it can''t be much different to squid and we've had that before with rice/noodles.
Any advice on what to do with it? and is it ok to freeze as bought it reduced?
TIA

    Freezing it is a good trick for making it more tender.


    Other than that, cook really quickly - or really, really slowly.
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    yes and if you cut up first into rings (if the fishmonger hasnt already done so) you have a virtually instant meal!
    I would defrost them, then coat in flour, milk and more flour then deep fry them for just a couple of mins til the outside colour a bit!
