I heard once that octopus cooks better in copper and that if you dont have
where to cook it , you could just add 2 copper coins to the water. what do
you think? thanks :)

It’s better if you put the octopus in cold water, then heat the water up
to simmering temperature. Then you let the octopus simmer until it is
edible.

I heard people said that if you want to prepare octopus, you need to remove
its ink bag and its eyes, is that correct? because I saw people cooked
octopus with their eyes hadn’t been removed ( ink bag removed ).
And they told me to use white wine to get rid of the bad smell of the
octopus.

Hubby bought home octopus to cook and I have no idea how to do it, I loved
this video with such great tips, thank you so much. I liked the bread part
as well.

Chef, I saw another chef cook octopus and she did it without any water.
However, the video was in Portuguese and I may have missed something. She
said that the octopus had so much water that it cooked itself. Have you
ever heard of this? And if you have, would you advise against it?

Intriguing. Given my husband’s dislike for all things cephalopod (he used
to fix commercial kitchen equipment and a chef decided to defrost a bucket
of squid in the hot kitchen for an hour…the smell was overpowering) I
doubt I will ever make this recipe, but I love to learn new things
regardless.

We ( My Family ) always cooked the Octopus in the boiling water with some
Vinegar & some fresh Lemons in it,& it always came out great, Not rubbery
or over done etc.

Ice there. I use to buy all of my Fish for my Christmas dinner there every

Well other than what you see in the video that is no seasoning untill you
put the salad together afterwards So once the Octopus has cooled down slice
in pieces about 1/4″ to 1/2″ thick toss in a large bowl with some boiled
potatoes and string beans one finely chopped Garlic clove fresh Italian
parsley, fresh lemon juice, salt & pepper to taste and the best olive oil
you can find (see other video on how to choose) for a nice twist I like to
add some fresh chopped mint. Enjoy And Buon Appetito!

the real key to cooking this thing for tender and not mushy is letting it
sit in water and allow it to cool do not remove let it cool to room temp
nice and easy then grill or what ever
