Steps:
- For the sauce: Combine the basil, pistachios, olive oil, lemon zest and garlic in a food processor. Pulse until roughly pureed. Remove the contents to a small bowl and stir in the mayonnaise and Parmigiano-Reggiano. Season with the salt.
- For the seafood: Fill a heavy-bottomed Dutch oven with 3 inches of oil and heat to 350 degrees F.
- Whisk together the rice flour, cornstarch, polenta, pepper and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Working in batches, dredge the shrimp and calamari in the flour mixture and add to the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan and drop the temperature. Fry until light golden brown and cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes. Use a spider to remove the seafood to a paper towel-lined tray and season with a pinch of salt. Continue with the remaining shrimp and calamari. Serve hot alongside the pesto dipping sauce and lots of lemon wedges.

Steps:
- Rinse the squid under cool water and pat dry with paper towels. Cut the body of the squid into 1/2-inch rings and trim the tentacles as necessary. Combine the milk, egg, and basil leaves in a bowl; mix with a fork until lightly beaten. Put the prepared calamari in the milk mixture and stick it in the refrigerator while getting everything else set up; it fries better if marinated and chilled for about 15 minutes.
- Pour about 2 inches of oil in a fryer or large, heavy pot and heat to 375 degrees F. Mix the flour and paprika in a pie dish or plate; season with a fair amount of salt and pepper. Toss the calamari in the seasoned flour to coat. Fry for 1 to 3 minutes or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and salt, to taste. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried calamari to paper towels to drain. Serve immediately with lemon wedges and dipping sauces.
- Smoked Jalapeno Aioli:
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 to 2 canned chipotle chile in adobo
- 1 garlic clove, coarsely chopped
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley
- Pinch salt
- Combine all ingredients in a food processor and blend for 1 minute to combine. Set aside to allow the flavors to marry. Serve as a dipping sauce with fried calamari.
- Yield: 1 cup
- Tomato-Basil Sauce:
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 4 fresh basil leaves, hand-torn
- 1 (16-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
- Pinch sugar
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Coat a saucepan with 2 tablespoons of the oil and warm over medium heat. Add the garlic and basil; cook, stirring, until soft. Add the crushed tomatoes and sugar; season with salt and pepper. Simmer the sauce for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the remaining olive oil. Serve as a dipping sauce with fried calamari.

Steps:
- Sauce:
- Whisk together mustards, vinegar, mustard seeds, and shallots. Add salt, to taste.
- Batter:
- Grind the rice in a blender until very fine. In a bowl, stir together the ground rice, semolina, flour, salt, and pepper.
- Fritto Misto:
- Heat several inches of oil to 375 degrees F in a deep fryer or a wide, deep, heavy pot. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
- Slit the calamari bodies open so they lie flat. Place calamari (bodies and tentacles), mushrooms, fennel, and lemon in separate bowls. Toss each with enough buttermilk to moisten them. Dip the calamari generously in the rice batter, using enough to fully coat.
- Working in batches (it's important not to overcrowd the pot), fry until golden brown and crisp, and then transfer to a tray lined with paper towels. Season immediately with salt. Transfer to a low oven to keep warm. Repeat with remaining calamari.
- Coat and fry the mushrooms, fennel, and lemon slices in the same way, working in batches and transferring them to the low oven as they are done.
- Put a generous pool of mustard sauce on each plate, then top with an assortment of fried squid, mushrooms, fennel, and lemon.
CALAMARI FRITTO
Adapted from Roadfood.com. The original recipe called for four times as much of the dry ingredients. I had more than enough by reducing the quantities as indicated here, but you may need more to coat the calamari. The confectioners' sugar adds a subtle sweetness.

Steps:
- Combine the flour, sugar, salt and pepper in a bowl.
- Dip the calamari strips in the milk.
- Dust the strips with the seasoned flour. (I put the calamari in a zip lock bag with the flour and gave them a good shake to coat.)
- Fill a heavy sauce pan with vegetable oil to about 4 inches up from the bottom. Heat the oil on the stove to 350 degrees, keeping a thermometer in the oil to prevent overheating. (A deep fat fryer is easier.).
- Fry the calamari 2-3 minutes. Don't overcook or you'll have chewy and tough calamari.
- Drain on absorbent paper. Sprinkle with seasoned salt and serve immediately.
