Zubereitung von Calamari Salad
- Rinse 1 pound of fresh squid under cold running water and pat thoroughly dry with paper towels.
- Cut the tentacle bunches in half. Slice the squid bodies into 1/4 to 1/3-inch wide rings.
- Carefully remove and discard the wings from the bodies.
- Fill a 5-6 quart pot with 4 cups of water. Add 2 teaspoons of salt and bring to a rolling boil.
- Prepare a bowl filled with ice water.
- Add the prepared squid pieces to the boiling water. Cook for 40-60 seconds, or until just opaque. Immediately transfer the squid to the ice water bath to stop the cooking process.
- Once the squid has completely cooled, transfer it to a colander to drain. Pat dry with paper towels.
- Set the cooked squid aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar, 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper.
- Add 1/2 cup finely chopped red onion to the dressing, stir well, and let stand for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooled squid with 1/2 cup pitted Kalamata olives, 1 cup chopped cherry tomatoes, 1/2 cup chopped celery, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, and 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese. Gently toss with the prepared dressing.
- Let the salad sit, tossing occasionally, for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to fully develop. For best results, chill for 8 hours and bring to room temperature before serving.
- Yields: 4 main course servings, 8 side dish servings
