It is a home-cooked dish in which squid legs (geso) are tapped with a kitchen knife, and seasonal vegetables are mixed with flour, and fried or grilled.

The meat is used for sashimi, simmered dishes, sushi pickles, etc., and the remaining squid legs (geso) are hammered with a kitchen knife, mixed with flour together with leftover vegetables at home to shape them, and baked or deep-fried in oil on an iron plate.
