 Dried shredded squid on Wikipedia
するめ (surume): dried squid ready for sale.
するめ (surume): dried squid torn into strips.

Unknown.

The oldest sense when first attested in the Wamyō Ruijushō of 934 is squid, apparently in reference to the Japanese flying squid commonly used after being dried.[1] By 1334, the sense shifted to refer to the dried foodstuff.[1]

The "dried squid" sense is now the most common, while the "type of squid" sense is often expressed using the term 鯣烏賊 (surume ika) instead.
