4. Place the breadcrumbs (preferably panko) in a third bowl.

Pro Tips for Extra Crunchy Calamari:

 Mixing cornstarch with flour creates a light and crispy texture.

 Soaking the calamari in milk keeps it tender and removes any strong smell.

 Using panko breadcrumbs instead of regular ones gives a better crunch.

 Frying over medium heat ensures a golden crust without making the calamari tough.
