Washing Up
I have a fresh, whole octopus. How should I cook it? I want to make it now so a quick reply would be the best. Thanks!
I hope I'm not too late to stop you from throwing the expensive octopus away. First you need to clean the octopus by taking out its eyes and mouth then wash it well. Put it in a pot without any water first to boil it. Add water and continue cooking until tender. It's normal for octopus to give off a strong flavour, so what you are smelling is not from rotting. Put your cooker hood on if you cannot take the smell. Once cool, cut into pieces and marinate with EVOO, vinegar and pepper. Yum!-DEADLY SUSHI- said:Oh boy. Im tossing it.
