Cooking techniques can vary, but i definatley recommend that you leave it is soda water water knead them and leave for few hrs, this allows for the calamari to be soft after cooking and not tough and too rubery.
There are a variety of ways to marinate squid, and some should be partnered with the manner in which you intend to prepare it. I prefer to use milk to marinate my squid and will do this when I plan to lightly bread the squid and saute it in a pan. I place the sliced squid (already having removed the cartilage and skin) in a bowl, fill it with enough milk to cover all of the squid, place a cover on the bowl and leave it in the refrigerator for 4-6 hours.
You can tenderize calamari by cutting very shallow cuts in a diagonal pattern over the surface of the calamari. You can avoid it getting tough by cooking it very quickly and not overcooking it.
You can pound them with a meat mallet , or soak them in milk , as the low acid will soften them . Keep them covered and refrigerated if you use the milk method. No powdered tenderizer . It makes squid, or any seafood mealy and mushy.
Calamari can be cooked in many ways. You can boil it, steam it, bake it, fry it, and more.
It depends on whether it is deep fried or not, but yes Calamari can be good for depending on how you cook it. :)
