I am able to access prime quality octopus here in Yucatán. This species is very demanded across the world. Export supply chains are well established, and actually is hard for us locals to try the prime product unless you know where to get it.
Cooking octopus is quite tricky. The real secret is how to boil it properly before one last seasoning.
These ones are small, very tasty, this picture was taken after boiling them and the next ones are on the grill:
The octopuses were marinated in a mix of salt, pepper, paprika, garlic and oil.
I clinched the proper flavor, meat was easy to chew and ver tasty. There are different ways to finish octopuses after they are boiled.
