  • Fried Calamari
    Recipe contributed by my Mom Lina Parente
    Ingredients
    • 1 pound of Calamari
    • 1 cup flour
    Preparation
    Cut the head and tentacles off all of the calamari. Once the head is removed clean out the inside making sure to remove the quill. Scrape or peel the skin off the squid until you reach the white flesh. Cut into rings and rinse under the water. Once you have everything cleaned you will need either a frying pan or a deep fryer to cook the calamari. Take each piece of calamari and dip it in the flour. Make sure to cover entirely in flour. Shake off the excess and place it into the heated oil. Cook until golden brown.
