Zubereitung von Marinated Octopus
- Place 1 whole octopus (approximately 1.5 lbs) in a large pot with 8 cups of water. Bring to a boil over high heat.
- Reduce heat to low, partially cover, and simmer gently for 1 hour and 45 minutes, or until the octopus is tender.
- Remove the octopus from the pot and let it cool slightly.
- Once cool enough to handle, rinse the octopus under cold water and gently peel off the skin.
- Chop the octopus into bite-sized pieces (approximately 1/2 inch thick).
- In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup red wine vinegar, 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tablespoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Add the chopped octopus to the bowl and gently toss to coat.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Before serving, stir in the juice of 1 large lemon.
