1 ¹⁄₂ - 2 cups balsamic vinegar
1 lb calamari, rings uncooked

directions

Bring a saucepan 3/4 full of water to a boil.
Add the squid and cook until just firm (about 2-3 minutes)-do not overcook.
Drain and rinse immediately under cold running water.
Drain well and set aside.
In a saucepan over low heat, simmer the balsamic vinegar (stirring occasionally) until it becomes thick and syrupy.
It should reduce to about 1/2 cup or maybe less.
Toss the calamari with the balsamic reduction and serve warm.
