The octopus has lean meat and it can be prepared in different ways: fried, boiled, stewed or as a salad with potatoes. I'll give you some advice to eat it at its best.
Let's see together how:
If you buy a frozen octopus, the sac is already cleaned.
If the octopus is fresh, you need to remove the entrails in this way.
Make a cut on the sac at eye level and cut off the eyes with a knife.
Remove the beak in this way.
Now tenderize the octopus by beating with a kitchen hammer, in this way the meat won't be chewy.
Wash the octopus under running water.
To curl the tentacles, dip in boiling water for 2-3 times. In this way your dish will look nicer.
Now the octopus is ready to be cooked in boiling water.
