This week, a bit of the yuck factor. It’s not to everybody’s taste – certainly not mine (and I’ve tried it) – but there’s no doubt that octopus does have a distinctive texture, even if it’s not one you would go out of your way to feel. Or eat.
This example was photographed on a stall in the Fish Market near the Rialto Bridge in Venice, so at least you can assume it was fresh.

Oh. I would much rather see it while diving, but I admit I love it in garlic! Thanks for sharing it!
came here from narami’s blog – and whoa – awesome texture – I am not an octopus fan, although in a soup or stew I can enjoy it – π
Thank you. I can eat it, and I have, but I wouldn’t choose it.
