11. Oyster Mushroom Calamari
Instead of using squid, we used king oyster mushrooms, which have a similar look and texture. We marinated them in soy sauce and used dulse flakes in the breading to give them a salty and slightly fishy (but not too fishy) flavor profile. After deep frying them to golden perfection, I could not believe my taste buds– the oyster mushroom calamari tasted almost identical to what I remember the traditional dish to taste like!
