  2. 2 Slice the squid body into flat pieces, dry them, and refrigerate them to firm up the meat.
  3. 3 Slice the squid into thin, even strips like noodles, slicing along the grain so the strips don't break.
  4. 4 Arrange the squid strips in a mound on a cold plate, then sprinkle with shredded nori seaweed.
  5. 5 Serve with soy sauce mixed with wasabi, grated ginger, and green onions.
