Calamari!


Feisty, slippery, ink-squirting Humboldt squid have streamed into Orange County waters in large numbers, and anglers off Newport Beach are wrestling them into boats.

I'm not sure if they're good eating or not, but just the thought of those extra large calamari rings, breaded and fried to a golden brown, piled high on a plate platter is enough to make my tummy rumble.

The biggest mistake with calamari is over-breading. Calamari just require a dusting of lightly seasoned flour, good, hot oil, and love. Any thoughts on calamari?

Throw enough good marinara sauce over anything and I might try it. Generally speaking though, if it comes out of the ocean, I ain't eating it.

yes, lightly breaded, not overcooked, and a real good marinara, but a horseradishy cocktail sauce ain't too bad.


Yummy.
