Baked Squid With Garlic-Anchovy Pasta image

I found this on another recipe site many years ago and it became a favorite back then. I recently came across the recipe again and thought I would share it here. Originally by Tracy Seaman in _An Italian Christmas Meal_; "Food and Wine", December 1994.

This dish was a little too salty for my taste, but I still enjoyed it.
