Octopus

Description

Octopus, an exotic seafood is readily and available to be delivered to your home.

When it comes to choosing which product you want to purchase, it comes down to origin, size and whether fresh or frozen.

One is caught in UK waters, normally from Cornish waters and approx 1kg in size, serving one portion once cleaned and will be delivered to you fresh. On the other hand, we have its Mediterranean counterpart, approx 2-3kg in size, and delivered to you frozen.

Even with the octopus seafood ordered, your next challenge is the preparing, cooking, and serving this majestic delight. Well, believe it or not, there are a number of unique and traditional ways to care for this important part of your culinary experience.

In the wild, Octopus will throw punches at fellow fishes when they are hunting, yet when prepared in a luxury dish they go very well with King Scallops and Jumbo Prawns.
