Iron Chef Dad Makes Octopus!
Properly cooked octopus has a similar texture and taste to lobster. The texture and smell are characteristic of the meat while the taste is mainly influenced by the ingredients used in cooking.
Octopus can be eaten raw and you could try it for the experience. But the truth is that it doesn’t taste that good on its own. That’s why most restaurants serve it with a sauce to add some flavor.
The best way to recognize a fresh octopus is to smell it. A freshly caught octopus will give off a saltwater aroma. Nothing else. If it gives off a strong fishy smell turn away.
