Ingredients:
3 pounds clean calamari |
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil plus 4 tablespoons |
10 cloves whole garlic, peeled |
1 tablespoon crushed hot chilies |
1 cup dry white wine |
2 cups basic tomato sauce, recipe follows |
2 bunches ramps, clean and whole |
1 bunch marjoram, leaves only |
4 thick slices country bread |
Directions:
1. Preheat grill.
2. Check calamari for any cartilage and cut into 1-inch pieces. Place calamari in a 6-quart saucepan and add olive oil, garlic cloves, chilies, wine and tomato sauce and bring to a boil. Lower heat to a high simmer and cook 1 hour.
3. Meanwhile, place ramps on grill until wilted, about 1 minute. Remove and allow to cool. Chop cooled ramps into 1/2-inch pieces, place in a mixing bowl with remaining oil and marjoram leaves and stir to blend.
