Octopuses are intelligent animals. Think about all the animals we don't eat because of their intelligence....horses, dolphins, chimps, dogs, elephants, cats. Maybe an octopus doesn't belong on our dinner plates.

I learned how to prepare octopus from a native of Galicia, Spain. This is the home of octopus fishing and famous enough for many dishes. What I was taught was to buy fresh octopus, freeze it for three days, thaw for three days then clean, remove the beak and pressure cook. The time required in the pressure cooker depends on the size but a one kilo fish takes about 15 minutes. You do not need much water in the cooker as the fish will provide quite a lot, add the spices from the recipe Once finished cooking follow the rest of the recipe.

Any pictures of the cooking process? The instructions are difficult to decipher.
