    In Spain we don´t use mayonnaise!!, only bread and squid. And of course 1 egg with the flour

    Sorry eugenia, but in Spain we do use mayonnaise or alioli (garlic and olive oil). Maybe it depends on the zone of Spain. I'm from Valencia. A bocadillo de calamares without mayonnaise or alioli is not a bocadillo de calamares ;)
