The story of Fried baby squid

Calamaretti are small squid, more tender than flying squid: to fry them, all you need is a light dusting of flour and very hot oil. Fried seafood in Naples has humble roots: in 1884 Matilde Serao lists “fragments of cuttlefish” among the fried scraps served in the working people’s osterie.

FAQs
What is the difference between squid and flying squid?
