Food Trip Friday: Calamares

Published by at 11:47 pm under Food Trip Friday,From my Kitchen

I missed FTF last week for no valid reason. I forgot to post my entry and when I recalled about posting it, it’s already Sunday. Hence I waited for this day to post my newest recipe.

When I sent my youngest sister to the market late last week, squid is on the list because I am craving for “adobong pusit” but she came home with 3 large white squid that isn’t good for “adobo”. I want the red ones so the “sabaw” would be dark!*lol* Hence I ended up with Calamares instead. I’ve been wanting to try this recipe before but I can’t convince myself to buy white squid at the market because I find it expensive. Anyway, here’s my Calamares…

I was amazed at how easy it is to prepare and oh…so yummy (according to the board of tasters) with a garlic vinegar as a dip. The next time I’ll go to the market, I’ll check for white squid and make Calamares again. :-)

    i also love adobong pusit with the ink—spicy with lots of pepper.:P

    have you tried fish sauce (bagoong isda with calamansi) as dip for calamares? masarap!

    hubby and I love calamaris! Every restaurant that serves it, we always try it… so far the Thai Emerald has the best of all…

    I do cook calamaris too but Thai Emerald uses baby squid and its better!

    I hope you can check my FTF entry
