Calamari, one of various types of squid popular in Italian cuisine. From region to region throughout Italy, you’ll find recipes such as fried calamari—typically the very small, intact calamaretti—or larger stuffed calamari, baked or stewed. This recipe is known in Italian as calamari in umido, which best translates to ‘stewed’ or ‘cooked in its own juices’. Serve with toasted crusty bread
