    The calamari was great. The only thing I put too much salt in the flower. But really good. I recommend to anybody who wants to do it.
    The best part was the marinera dip sauce. IT had a special taste that you find in restaurants. It was perfect.
    Have fun and enjoy making it.

    We make this calamari recipe as a weeknight dinner with some fresh green salad and crostinis.

    It is really simple and quick yet the calamari marinade is rich in flavor. The paprika gives it a nice kick. Never though milk helps in tenderizing the squid.

    I made this for my husbands birthday and it was GREAT. The coating was amazing...crunchy and delicate. i really liked the aioli but the tomatoe sauce was a little salty. Still good though! Thank you so much for this great recipe!!!!!

    I defrosted a 1 pound bag of frozen, cleaned calamari rings and used them instead of cleaning squid. Exceptional.

    I actually was more interested in the Aioli in this recipe and have been using it for several deep fried dishes like popcorn shrimp. It also tastes super on a burger or a sandwich.

    Last night I went out off the coast of San Diego with my father in our boat and caught 15 Humboldt Squid.

    I used this recipe (slightly modified due to the size of the squid and it came out awesome.

    The tomato basil was excellent. The Smoked jalapeno sauce was VERY good, just be careful of putting 2 cans of peppers in. It gets a little spicy.

    I was very happy with how this fried calamari came out, it was delicious. Had this been served to me in a restaurant I would have been very pleased. I served the marinara sauce with it, and it was exactly what I expected it to be - light, fresh, and slightly sweet. I made 2.5 pounds of calamari as an appetizer for my guests, thinking there would be a lot left-over, and it was entirely consumed by 7 people before it had even cooled off. The only problem was that no one was hungry for dinner after that!

    We have eaten calamari in some of the best restaurants in the U.S. With this recipe we now have calamari at home that is as good, or better than that served in many restaurants. Everyone who has eaten my calamari raves about it and if they didn't like calamari before, love it now. This recipe is excellent and I make it on a regular basis. I also serve it with the aioli, which is a perfect accompaniment.
