It's been a slow squid season this year, so why not use all of what you catch? This week on The Local Food Report, Elspeth Hay learns about the many culinary uses of squid ink, from risottos to martinis.

Get detailed instructions (with photos) for cleaning squid, and a recipe for Risotto Nero alla Fiorentino on Elspeth's blog, Diary of a Locavore.
