Seppie in Umido - Italian Recipe

Seppie in Umido

🌍 Italian, Venice/Veneto Difficulty: ●●●○○

Venetian cuttlefish braised in white wine and tomato until the flesh turns opaque and yielding. Clean the cuttlefish thoroughly — any trace of the ink sac turns the sauce murky. Score the bodies in a crosshatch pattern so they cook flat.

Ingredients

• 800g cuttlefish, cleaned
• 1 onion, 2 garlic cloves
• 200ml white wine
• Squid ink (optional)
• Parsley, olive oil

Method

1. Sautéing — Sauté onion and garlic; add cuttlefish.
2. Adding — Add wine and ink; simmer 30 min until tender.
3. Garnishing — Garnish with parsley; serve with polenta.
