The true and original octupus galician style recipe is minimalist itself. Only cook the octopus and add some potatoes, olive oil, salt and pimentón. Cut in slices. Easy, delicious.
Oh yeah, and screw you all. This is the MINIMALIST not some pretentious pro chef. For MINIMAL effort, that octopus looks freaking delicious. Bet you critical bums can't come up with any recipes that could top his.
Oh, no, no, no, no. That's not an octopus cooked Galician style.
1. Do not cut octopus tentacles, Do no to cut nothing. Put the octopus in boiling water all in one piece.
2. Depending on the size of the octopus, cook it 45-60 minutes.
3. At half that time put the potatoes (it takes 20 minutes to cook them).
4. Finally put the octopus cut in slices about 1 cm or 1/2 inch of thickness on a dish with potatoes. Add olive oil (not so much as in the clip), pimentón and salt.
You got rid off all that octopus!!! An hour of cooking is way too long and you didn't "scare" the octopus. What "scaring" means in Spain (in cooking context) is that you put it in hot water for a bit, take it out, put it back in for a bit, take it out, and put it back in.
Didn't serve it in a wooden plate, slice up the legs, way too much oil, the potatoes are cut too thick.
This is a terrible version at best, then again it is being prepared by an American instead of a Spaniard.
This guy has no idea how to cook octopus anyway, let lone the Galician way. I have no doubt that cooking like he did will lead to a hideously chewy octopus that will ache your jaw bone. This is not how you cook it.
The octopus looks over cooked!! And that way you made it will reek the whole kitchen/house for days.
Poach it no more than 10 minutes in 83 celsius,finish on the grill.8-10 minutes.Cool over night.Octopus is better when it is completely cooled and has rested at 2 to 4 celsius for at least 12 hours.Bring to room temp,reheat on the grill or oven till warm.
@duckfeet428 If you can, get octopus at a fisherman's market, preferably local. If you live in a more inland community, you might want to discount octopus entirely until you can make a trip to the coast. Packaged or preserved octopus isn't very good.
slimy dreadlocks lol, seen those somewhere in starwars

@parsector Refer to 0:50. He says you "could" put it all in at once but he wants to "make it more accessible" for people.
