- Put ginger, garlic, rice wine, and soy sauce into blender, then blend into smooth paste (add just a bit of water if needed to aid in blending).
- Mix blended paste and all other sauce ingredients in a small bowl and let sit for fifteen minutes. Thin with water as needed to make a "pourable" paste.
- Squid.
- Clean the squid. (Your fish market should be able to clean the squid for you) Wash well in cold water.
- Slit the squid body from the triangle (where the "wings" and body meet) to the head cavity, open and flatten.
- Cut into 1/4 inch wide strips from the "head" to the "tail".
- Cut the strips into about 2 inch sections.
- Slit the tentacle ring, flatten, and cut each tentacle free from the others. Cut tentacles into about 2 inch sections.
- Wash peppers in cold water and remove stems. Cut in half from top to bottom, then slice each half into three or four slivers from top to bottom.
- Trim top and bottom of green onions, wash in cold water, then cut into about 2 inch lengths.
- Optional Vegetables (Use any or all).
- Cut onion in half from to bottom. Slice 1/2 the onion, from top to bottom, into about 1/4 inch wide slices.
- Remove and discard outer cabbage leaves, then cut in half from top to bottom. Cut one section in half again, from top to bottom. Slice into about 1/2 inch wide slices.
- Trim top and bottom of carrot, and wash in cold water. Cut into strips about the same size as the squid strips.
- Wash and thin slice mushrooms.
