Private Dining Party Featuring Calamari
The word calamari comes from the Italian for “squid.” In the United States, it generally refers to a battered and deep-fried or grilled appetizer served in restaurants and bars, though some people use it interchangeably with the main ingredient, the squid. While many Mediterranean countries serve some variety of squid, it’s also popular across Asia.
Spanish and Italian cooks add squid to paella, risotto, soups, and pasta, while in Portugal, you can find lulas, grilled whole kebabs of squid rings with bell peppers and onions. In Korea, fresh squid is often served deep-fried, then wrapped with mustard or chili sauce in lettuce leaves.
