Octopus

Octopus is a prized delicacy in Mediterranean and Asian cuisines, known for its unique texture and subtle briny flavor. When prepared correctly it becomes beautifully tender and pairs wonderfully with olive oil, lemon, garlic and fresh herbs. It can be grilled over charcoal, braised slowly in wine, added to seafood salads or served as part of an elegant tapas spread. The key to perfect octopus lies in proper tenderising and careful, patient cooking to avoid a rubbery result.
