Pulpo a la Gallego. Ewww!

The Hague, The Netherlands

Last night's dinner had eight legs and a beak. More like some sort of monster. First time ever cooking octopus for us. Here are the tips and recipes we used.



It turned out okay, despite not having pimenton and not blanching/brining. It was a bit chewy, I would say. The dish is probably best for a large, open-minded crowd, considering it serves, eight, get it. Haardy haar! 


Allow plenty of time to simmer/blanch/brine and try it for yourself.

Is it embarrassing that I actually laughed out loud at the 8 servings comment?
