An exotic food, certainly. People living in the shoreline said the best way to cook this is through its water or oil. Just wash and the put in the pan and cook. Well, this is also good in adobo or cooking in soy sauce and vinegar. But beware, cooking with too much sauce might make it harder to bite and chew. I saw some nationalities just eating it uncook, oh I cannot dare to try it. I might be dead choking it. Oh, by the looks of it I know you knew it already. Maybe not in some countries who are not familiar with this marine animal.

I knew it was an octopus. I never cooked it myself, but eat it every once in a while.

How does it differ from squids? I have never tasted one and I am 100% willing to try one when I have the opportunity to try it.

@ilocosboy I have tasted squids since they are far more commonly available in the market. But with Octopus I have never tried that one yet and I am curios to how does it differ from the squids.

some octopus recipes are really good. I have tried few of them but not that many.

Octopus have rounded head with bigger tentacles while squids are cone-shaped head with smaller tentacles. Squids are more delicious and have more recipes than squids.

@ilocosboy Yes, it is. It's not an animal that lives in the Baltic Sea or the North Sea.

Correct. Why in Italy? Is it hard to find in Germany?

I have seen a documentary in national television featuring fresh seafood in Busan and yes one way of eating this is raw. They will chopped it alive and you will eat it while still moving and would just dip it to a vinegar or sauce.
