I quite like it but prefer it dried then cooked, bit chewy though for not a lot of flavour.

the secret to cook is:

* before you buy you must smell.. if no bad smell its ok..

* the big head part contains the organs , you must cut it without exploding the stomach and intestine..

*then  you need to clean the skin by hand..  ( a bit tedious)

then boil it for 7-8 minutes in water..

* now clean the pores of the arms..and cut them

after either you cut small pieces and fry or ,

use a pressurized cooker  for 20 minutes with 1-2 glass of water and 1-2 cube sugar.. (smells sweet)

then let it for cool down..  use some lemon and salt to prepare as salad..

I enjoy all seafood.  Secret is the correct preperation for each and all species...  Spent too many years on ships with Hong Kong Chinese crew and cooks to be bashfull....   :-*

Like your recipe description...  Sounds really tasty!!   :y

Same in the philippines Cem....the wife leaving on an island and being right next too the sea they literally eat anything.

They tend too catch the octopus themselves by hand....not my thing but she says they are delicious and would be jealous seeing that picture you posted. :y

Never tried it but i've an open pallette where food is concerned so i would'nt turn my nose up if sat at your table. A favourite dish of the Polish is Carp. Not being a fisherman i believe carp is a freshwater fish which as a rule we don't eat. They enjoy it with potatoes, pickled veggies & vodka..& why not? :P :y
