I'd love to tell you that Arrows are as nice as calamari....but they're not. They are more rubbery and less flavoursome, so I like to marinade them in garlic, marjoram and olive oil for a couple of hours before I fry them to give them a bit more flavour (either that or use them as bait!). Freezing them also makes them less tough. There are a few threads relating to arrow squid edibility in the chat boards. I usually don't marinade calamari (they're tasty enough by themselves). How do you usually cook squid?
Good luck
