👨‍🍳 조리법

1. 1

   Place the cleaned octopus in a large pot with water, bay leaf, peppercorns, and crushed garlic. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.

2. 2

   Remove the octopus from the water and let it cool completely. Once cooled, cut into bite-sized pieces.

   💡 전문가 팁: Cooling the octopus thoroughly makes it easier to handle and cut.
3. 3

   In a large bowl, combine the octopus pieces with thinly sliced red onion, diced red bell pepper, diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and chopped fresh parsley.

4. 4

   In a small separate bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to create the dressing.

   💡 전문가 팁: Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
5. 5

   Pour the dressing over the octopus and vegetable mixture. Toss gently to combine all ingredients evenly.

6. 6

   Chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

   💡 전문가 팁: Serve chilled for a refreshing experience.
