    Made calamari at home for the first time this weekend using Alton's recipe as a guideline and it came out great. Quick and easy with a light coating so the flavor of the calamari shines through. I made a pepperocini and a thai chili sauces to serve on the side.

    Let it be known I love calamari. But I've never bought or cooked it until today. I took a chance and followed Alton's recipe and was very impressed. So I no longer have to eat restaurant calamari, I can just cook my own :.

    AB's Squid II episode fired me up to go out and buy a box of frozen squid the next day. When I announced "squid night" it wasn't met with great cheer. My squid came frozen whole. I am very glad I saw AB clean fresh squid as I had no trouble.

    The dry fried calamari was the appetizer that turned the mob into a cheering crowd. Very light unlike calamari I've had elsewhere. His directions on cooking duration are right on. I followed the calamari appetizer with the stuffed squid. It wasn't too "squiddy", which I am sure has a definition somewhere. It was a great hit and a good way to deal with a box of 30 eight-inch squid.

    If you are new to squid and want to try this I'd really recommend seeing his episode. Do it!!!

    I was working the Squid Stuffed Squid recipe from Alton and then ran out of stuffings but still had the tubes left. So I decided to cut the leftovers into rings and fry them. Comes out delicious and crunchy, little heaven rings that made my day!

    I'm all for easy preparation for near instant gratification. The coating will be light and not overbearing, maintaining the integrity of the natural calamari flavor. We enjoy this recipe frequently!
