 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  3       lb           Squid, cleaned and cut into
                       -rings
    1/2   c            Soy sauce
    1/2   c            Mirin, or 1/2 cup sherry
    1/2   c            Water
  2       tb           Sugar
  1       t            Cornstarch
                       Juice of 2 lemons

 To make the terriyaki sauce, combine all the ingredients except the
 cornstarch.  Reserve half of the sauce, marinate the squid in the
 other half for 1 hour.

 Prepare the fire.  Skewer squid pieces and tentacles.  Heat the
 reserved terriyaki sauce in a saucepan.  When it begins to boil, add
 the cornstarch dissolved in a little water.  As soon as the sauce
 thickens, remove from heat.  As it cooks you will baste the squid
 with this terriyaki sauce.

 Grill the squid until it turns dark brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side,
 depending on the heat, and then turn it over.  Baste one last time
 and then remove skewers from the fire.  Serve over rice accompanied
 with any remaining sauce.
