This was my first time making buttermilk battered calamari, and it turned out great! The calamari was tender and juicy, and the batter was crispy and flavorful. I'll definitely be making this again.

Overall, I thought this recipe was pretty good. The calamari was cooked well and the batter was flavorful. However, I found the recipe to be a bit too oily for my taste.

The calamari was a bit overcooked for my taste, but the batter was really good. I'll try again with a shorter cooking time.

I love the idea of using buttermilk in the batter. It adds a subtle tanginess that really complements the calamari. The calamari was cooked perfectly, and the batter was crispy and golden brown.

The buttermilk batter made the calamari extra crispy and flavorful. I served it with a side of lemon wedges and tartar sauce, and it was a hit with my family. Will definitely make this again!
