Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Octopus

In a large pot, bring water to a boil with a pinch of sea salt. Add the octopus and cook for about 30-40 minutes until tender. Remove from water and let cool.

2

Sear the Octopus

Once cooled, cut the octopus into tentacles. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat and add the garlic. Sear the octopus for 3-4 minutes until slightly charred.

3

Plate and Garnish

Remove the octopus from the pan, and place on a serving plate. Drizzle with salsa brava, squeeze lemon juice over, and garnish with chili threads. Season with black pepper and additional sea salt if desired.
