    The basic recipe is a winner., because of the cornstarch. Sauce is great. Believe me, this is the way to go.

    This may be a perfectly good recipe, but it isn't Rhode Island calamari. A good Rhode Island calamari is a combination oil, garlic and hot peppers. I am perfecting my own recipe at home based on versions I have eaten here in New England.

    this recipe is just wonderful a great mix of everything. The second time I made it I added chopped marinated artichoke hearts. Now it's even better!!!

    I'm a native RIer and have been eating calamari in RI for 35+ years, long before it was chic. I have never had it this way in any restaurant in RI that I've ever eaten in. Recipe sounds intriguing, but it is not calamari RI-style. RI-style is lightly fried in a seasoned flour batter and served with banana pepper rings, mild or hot depending on personal preferences. Pepperoncini have been substituted in a pinch. Marinara sauce hit the menus in the 90's, but plain and simple is the real RI-style.

    We saw Guy make it on the "Next Food Network Star" and since my 10yr. old daughter loves calimari, we decided to to try it. It's a great appetizer.

    I'm from Newport, RI and there are several restaurants that served this style Calamari, and now I can make it at home!! Note: I used peanut oil to fry, tastes great!

    I'm from Rhode Island...I can't imagine where his inspiration for this dish was...too hard, too greasy...I think he left something out of this recipe
