ALTERNATIVE MICROWAVE PREPARATION METHODS

Although in the microwave is the fastest and easiest way to prepare octopus, we suggest an alternative that may be useful:
1. IN A WATER BATH: Heat it for about 5 minutes in very hot water. You can heat it directly in the pack or change it to a glass container, such as a small dish or a bowl. Remove and chop.
2. IN A FRYING PAN: If your recipe requires that we serve it chopped, it’s preferable that cut it cold to avoid losing the skin. Once this is done, in a frying pan with olive oil, heat the octopus for about two minutes until it is golden on both sides.
3. IN A COLD DISH: It can be chopped and served cold into fresh dishes, such as salads, … All you have to do is remove the product’s own gelatin. For this you must either leave it out of the refrigerator for a while at room temperature, or remove it with a kitchen utensil such as a knife or fork.
