I managed to correctly and conveincingly cook an octupus. It's very difficult. It came out delicious. It's great healthy food BUT it has high cholecterol so be warned https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/healt...topus-ari-phan Master https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86URGgqONvA

Anyone called me?

paiktis were you hacked?

Octopi are extremely intelligent creatures. Basically, you ate a less photogenic version of a dolphin or chimp. Hope it was yummy!

I, for one, welcome our new cephalopod masters.

[Bereta_Eder]

don'tr try to make me guild-ridden! If they were so intelligent why didn't they escape the sea so that they could make fire create civilization and eat us? So there

[ZEE]

Octopus is too chewy and tasteless. It is the type of food that rich hippies that drive Porsches and brag about it eat just to rub it in the face of us "lesser folk."

Give me a Taco Bell burrito and a supreme soft taco and I am happy.

Plus I am armed with at least a shank and a death wish. Bring your Porsche-driving ass over to THIS devil worshiping failure. We will see who talks to God first.

There maybe. here it's a delicatessen for everyone (it is a bit pricey but it's worth it). how you cook it plays a major part as to not be chewy and be tasty and also it depends where it is from. atlantic ones are notoriously blant whereas mediteranean ones are very succulent. Cathing them is difficult and they can't be "cultivated" in sea farms hence the price

[Bereta_Eder]

also. burrito (con carne)

[ZEE]

I didn't think of that. I probably only ate Atlantic ones.

[Bereta_Eder]

most people eat atlantic. they are comparatively cheap and easy to come by. heck to eat greek ones you basically have to be on vacation on the greek islands. otherwise, forget about it. there might be some outlets in athens but I don't know them. But even with atlantic ones, there is hope. It greatly depends how you prepare them. Do this: buy atlanitc frozen octopus tentacles. Defreeze them on a ball under the tap with running water. Place the tentacles in the ball fill it with water and let the water run and run and run (here it's basically free, so no problem) DO NOT defreeze them in the microwave, they will dry up. Octopus are like 8-% water. Listen to me. Take a pot. Put it on high fire. When the tentacles are tender, flexible, throw them in the pot. there will be a sound like a bomb. it's normal. Lower the heat to medium - low. Cover the pan. Add daphne (laurel) two leafs. pepper seeds, black. olive oil two spoons. vinegar, two spoons. Let it slowly shimmer for 40 minutes to one hour. Best one hour. Move it a bit from time to time and always keep the lid on. The sauce that will be created will make the octopus yummy. After one hour, take it out. Add oregano and let it cool down a bit. Cut it up to small pieces and serve it with ouzo. Add to the octupus capers, chopped green peppers fresh extra virgin olive oil and drops of vinegar. IT IS FRECKING HEAVEN. guaranteed.

When I first read this I thought you typed athletic and I'm thinking, how the hell do you know if they worked out.

[Bereta_Eder]

When I was scanning the net for recipees, I came upon a guy analyzing everything about the octopus. From molecular structure to muscle alignment that explains stifness and how to overcome it and then giving the recipee (it's in greek)

[Dinner]

The Master and Commander book series was really good.

If you like octopus, try takoyaki.
