My Tako experience

Look! new species I dug out from the stomach of the Tako!!
it have back of a Buaya and curl up like Hedgehog.

Trying new recipe today * ada mood masak * with Octopus, because recently I bought 2kgs of octopus for test trial from Ray. This is a South China Sea variety from Endau.Quite a lot of work needed to be done while you know~ cleaning these octopus… you need to gut em *these octopus have shit for brain! Haha!?! * , removed the ink sac *careful not to break the sac!! >.0! * ,cut the eyes and the beak.
Octopussy~ Tako
Then you need to boiled them for a few mins, Cut a few slices for boiling experiment.
Discovered that if boiled too long and you have a‘chewing gum of the east’ texture. Strained the octopus well and begin deskinning *the outer layer of reddish skin is way too disgusting to digest *~ Starts my cold marination process.. tested a couple of flavours and settled

As to what was the result at the end.. hmm.. a wonderful 2 flavoured "Cold Dish" *no kiddin! * It's so good I won praises! . Drools~!
