Steps:
- For the spicy calamari and cucumber salad: Add the soy sauce, vinegar, honey, chili paste, garlic and ginger to a bowl and whisk to combine. Season with salt if needed. Divide the marinade between 2 medium bowls. Add the calamari to one of the bowls and the cucumbers to the other. Stir so that the calamari and cucumbers are fully coated in the marinade. Let marinate at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the calamari from the marinade and pat dry. Grill the calamari in batches until charred and tender, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and slice the tubes into 1/2-inch rings. Add the rings and whole tentacles to the bowl with the cucumbers and toss to combine.
- For the spiced yogurt sauce: Whisk together the yogurt, chopped cilantro, coriander, garlic, caraway seeds, sumac, paprika and 1 teaspoon salt. The sauce can be made up to 1 day in advance and kept refrigerated.
- To serve: Spread some of the yogurt sauce onto a shallow dish. Use a spoon to create a well in the center of the sauce so that the sides of the sauce are about 1/2-inch high. Add the marinated cucumbers and grilled calamari into the well. Garnish with cilantro leaves and black sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
SPICY AND GREASY RHODE ISLAND CALAMARI
Rhode Island-style calamari, which has hot cherry peppers in the dredging mix, is a local favorite. Look for medium-size fresh or frozen squid (about eight to a pound) for frying.

Steps:
- Working Ahead:
- The squid can be cleaned (if necessary) and cut in the morning, then covered and refrigerated. The fry mix can also be made early in the day.
- Cut squid bodies into 1/2″ rings and put in a colander set over a bowl; add whole tentacles. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use (up to 6 hours).
- Fry Mix:
- Combine cornstarch, flour, cornmeal, salt, and both peppers in a large bowl and whisk well. Refrigerate if not using within an hour or two to prevent humidity from changing the mixture.
- Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Heat 3" of oil in a 4-quart Dutch oven over medium heat (or in a deep fryer) until it registers 360° on a deep-fry thermometer.
- While oil is heating, pour buttermilk into a large bowl and drop squid into it. Stir with a Chinese wire-mesh skimmer to coat, then lift about half of squid pieces from buttermilk, allowing excess buttermilk to drip back into bowl, and drop pieces into the dry mix. Rinse and dry the wire skimmer. Toss pieces to coat evenly with the mix, then lift them out with skimmer, gently shake off excess fry mix, and transfer to a plate. Bread remaining squid. Rinse and dry skimmer.
- Heat a 10″-12″sauté pan over medium heat and add butter. Once it melts, add garlic and sauté until golden. Add drained cherry peppers and toss to combine. Turn heat down to low while you fry squid.
- When the oil is hot, carefully drop half the squid pieces into oil. If any of the pieces stick to the bottom of the pot, loosen with tongs. Turn squid occasionally to cook evenly; it will only take about 1 1/2 minutes until they are crisp and golden.
- Fry remaining squid and drain.
- Add all of fried squid to the hot pan with the garlic and sliced peppers, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and quickly and gently toss (only twice). Divide among 4 small plates and serve immediately.
SPICY CALAMARI WITH FREGOLA
In Sardinia, rustic saucy fish stews are commonly served with fregola, simmered golden nuggets of toasted semolina, hearty and satisfying. A relative of couscous, fregola arrived by ship from nearby Tunisia, became popular and melded into the local cuisine long ago. The little round pellets are the size of a peppercorn, or a bit larger. When cooked, they have a pleasant, slightly chewy texture. Traditionally, fregola is used in vegetable soups as a way to add substance; prepared like a juicy risotto with the concentrated flavor of clams or other shellfish; or served as part of a room-temperature salad. Most Italian stores in the United States carry it, but you may substitute Israeli-style pearl couscous, which has a similar flavor.

Steps:
- Spread the calamari on a baking sheet and pat dry as best you can with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Put 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large, wide skillet over high heat. Add calamari and quickly stir-fry, cooking for only 1 minute, until puffed. Remove from pan with slotted spoon and set aside.
- Return pan to stove, reduce heat to medium-high and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add crushed red pepper, anchovy and garlic and let sizzle, then add onions and stir well.
- Season onions generously and cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes, until softened and faintly colored. Add saffron and wine and simmer for 1 minute, then add tomato and broth. Adjust heat so sauce simmers gently for about 10 minutes, until flavors are well mingled. Taste for salt and hot pepper.
- Meanwhile, bring 4 cups salted water to a boil. Add fregola and cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and keep warm.
- Add par-cooked calamari to the sauce over high heat. Add basil leaves and stir well until everything is heated through and calamari are completely cooked, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a warm serving bowl and fold in cooked fregola. Sprinkle with oregano, add a drizzle of olive oil, if desired, and serve.

SPICY SAUTEED CALAMARI OVER PASTA
I found this recipe on eastvillagekitchen.com and made it with my wife. It came out so good I had to add to my cookbook. If you like Fra Diavolo you'll love this! The version we just made was a little too spicy - I might try cutting down on the red pepper next time - but it was still really delicious. Great over pasta, or on its own as an appetizer (double the serving count for appetizer).

CALAMARI FRA DIAVOLO OVER LINGUINE RECIPE BY TASTY
In this classic Italian pasta dish, tender squid rings and tentacles simmer in a thick and spicy tomato sauce-fra diavolo means "brother devil" in Italian. Toss it with linguine, top with more parsley and red pepper flakes, and serve family style. We recommend using clam juice to enhance the seafood flavor, but chicken stock works too!

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil of medium-high heat.
- While the water is boiling, make the sauce: In a separate large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and ½ teaspoon salt and sauté for 4-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and translucent. Add the garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes and sauté for 1 minute, until the garlic is fragrant.
- Add the tomato paste and mix until evenly combined with the aromatics. Cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomato paste has darkened and thickened. It is okay if some of the paste begins to stick to the bottom of the pot. Deglaze with the red wine and clam juice, scraping up any browned bits. Simmer for 4-6 minutes, until the liquid is reduced by half.
- Add the whole peeled tomatoes and, using a potato masher, break up the tomatoes into bite-sized chunks. Bring the sauce to a simmer.
- Add the calamari and stir to coat in the sauce. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 25 minutes, until the calamari is very tender and the sauce has thickened. Season with the remaining teaspoon of salt, plus more to taste.
- When the calamari has 6-8 minutes cooking time left, drop the linguine into the boiling water and until just shy of al dente. Reserve ¼ cup (60 ml) of the pasta water.
- Using tongs, transfer the linguine directly to the calamari sauce. Add the reserved pasta water and toss well to combine. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the linguine is al dente and well coated in the sauce. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the lemon juice and half of the parsley.
- Transfer the pasta to a large serving platter and garnish with remaining parsley and red pepper flakes.
- Enjoy!
