Here are some key points about fresh octopus: Physical Characteristics: Octopuses have a soft body, a bulbous head, and eight long, flexible arms (tentacles) lined with suckers. They are known for their intelligence and adaptability. Habitat: Octopuses are found in oceans around the world, inhabiting a variety of environments, from shallow coastal waters to deep-sea regions. Culinary Use: Octopus is a popular seafood item in many cuisines and is known for its tender, flavorful meat. It is used in a variety of dishes, such as salads, stews, ceviche, and grilled preparations. Freshness: When purchasing fresh octopus, look for a firm and intact body with a clean and glossy appearance. The skin should be intact, and the eyes clear. The arms should be flexible. Cleaning and Preparation: Fresh octopus needs to be cleaned before cooking. This typically involves removing the internal organs, beak, and ink sac. The skin may also be peeled off, leaving behind the meat. Cooking Methods: Octopus can be cooked using various methods, including boiling, grilling, roasting, and sous vide. The cooking process helps tenderize the meat. Tenderness: Achieving tenderness in octopus can be a culinary challenge. Some methods, such as slow cooking or simmering in a flavorful broth, are employed to break down the tough connective tissues and ensure a tender result. Flavor Profile: Octopus has a mild and slightly sweet flavor. The meat can absorb the flavors of the ingredients it is cooked with, making it versatile for different culinary applications. Common Dishes: Octopus is featured in a variety of dishes worldwide, including Spanish pulpo a la gallega, Italian octopus salad, Greek grilled octopus, and Japanese takoyaki. Sustainability: Sustainable fishing practices are important to ensure the long-term health of octopus populations. Some fisheries and seafood certification programs promote responsible octopus harvesting. Frozen Octopus: While fresh octopus is ideal, frozen octopus is also widely available. Frozen octopus is often pre-cleaned and can be a convenient option for home cooks.
Octopus (octopus spp)
Spread across 300 different species the Octopus is a soft limbed mollusc which has eight limbs to use. It is a bilaterally symmetrical animal and has two eyes and a beak. Thanks to its soft body the octopus can change shape and move around in between nooks and corners too. When they move around the eight appendages tend to follow them.
It is said that an Octopus has a complex nervous system but obviously good eyesight and thus are the most behaviourally diverse of all invertebrates. You will find an octopus in various parts of the sea like pelagic waters, coral reefs and the sea beds. Most of the species of octopus grow very quickly leading to early maturity and subsequent death.
Octopus has been aptly used in various forms of mythology and certain fantasy books as well. The entire world loves to eat the octopus but usually, the Mediterranean and Asian areas are true lovers of the same. Giant Pacific octopus has been found to be the largest of the entire octopus available. On the other hand, the Octopus wolfi is smallest with an average length of 2.5 centimetres. It also has an ink sac for protection which can be found under its digestive gland.

has 8 arms (not tentacles) with suckers in the form of concave dots on the arms which are used to move on the seabed and catch prey. The octopus arm is a structure muscular hydrostat which consists almost entirely of layers of muscle without bones or exoskeleton . Unlike other cephalopods, most of the octopuses of the Incirrata suborder have a body made up of muscles and no internal skeleton. Octopuses don't have an outer shell as a protector like the Nautilus and don't have an inner shell or bones like cuttlefish and squid. The beak is the hardest part of the octopus's body which is used as a jaw to kill prey and bite it into small pieces.
This highly flexible body allows the octopus to squeeze itself into very narrow rocky crevices on the ocean floor, especially when escaping from predatory fish such as the sea moray eel. Lesser-known octopuses from the Cirrata suborder have two fins and an inner shell, which reduces their ability to squeeze into tight spaces.
Octopuses have a relatively short life span and some species only live for 6 months. Larger species such as the North Pacific giant octopus which can weigh up to 40 kilograms can live up to 5 years under the right environmental conditions. Reproduction is one of the causes of death, male octopuses can only live a few months after mating and female octopuses die shortly after laying eggs. Death is caused by the octopus neglecting to eat for about a month while guarding the unhatched eggs.
The covering of the abdominal part of the octopus body is called the mantle which is made of muscle and looks like a pouch. Octopuses have three hearts which consist of two hearts to pump blood to the two gills and a heart to pump blood to all parts of the body. Octopus blood contains protein Hemocyanin which is rich in copper to transport oxygen. Compared to Hemoglobin which is rich in iron, Hemocyanin is less efficient in transporting oxygen. Hemocyanin dissolves in plasma and is not bound by red blood cells so octopus blood is pale blue in color. Octopuses breathe by sucking water into the mantle cavity through both gills and exhaled through the siphon tube. Octopuses have gills with very fine divisions, originating from the growth of the outer or inner body which undergoes vascularization
