California Farm Calamari Tapas
We get our calamari frozen here, and like to make tapas with them, which is a bit tricky because they cannot be too wet or soggy when served spanish style, so we use two hot skillets instead of one, and transfer the rings and tentacles from the wet one to the dry one.
