Add the onion and saute until the onion softens. Add the chili flakes and stir well (we usually use about a tablespoon as we like spicy food) Add the octopi and saute on high heat for 2 to 3 minutes if using baby octopi, 5 to 6 minutes if using larger octopi, being sure not to burn the onion or octopi. Add the wine and stir well. Lower the heat and partially cover the pan. Cook for 5 to 10 minutes or until the wine and liquid in the pan has reduced and thickened. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with the fresh bread. Enjoy! Hi Antti,

I was looking for an e-mail address to send you the octopus recipe but I couldn’t find it so here it is:

1 pound of fresh baby octopi or 2 or 3 larger octopi (they’re better if they’re fresh), washed and cleaned with the ink sac removed
1 onion, thinly sliced
2 to 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup good quality white wine
red pepper flakes
salt and pepper
crusty loaf of fresh bread

Heat the oil in a pan with a lid.
Add the onion and saute until the onion softens.
Add the chili flakes and stir well (we usually use about a tablespoon as we like spicy food)
Add the octopi and saute on high heat for 2 to 3 minutes if using baby octopi, 5 to 6 minutes if using larger octopi, being sure not to burn the onion or octopi.
Add the wine and stir well.
Lower the heat and partially cover the pan.
Cook for 5 to 10 minutes or until the wine and liquid in the pan has reduced and thickened.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Serve with the fresh bread.

Enjoy!
