❆ Raw whole octopus caught in Morocco 2-3kg

This frozen beaten octopus flower is made from common octopus (Octopus vulgaris) caught in the Central East Atlantic (FAO zones 34 - 1.31 & 1.32) using traps, pots (FPO) and/or trawls (TRAWL). Mechanically beaten to tenderise the flesh, the octopus is then shaped into a flower, eviscerated, individually wrapped in food-safe plastic, then IQF/IWP (individually quick frozen / individually wrapped pack) deep-frozen.
Elegantly presented, each piece is individually graded, labelled and weighed to ensure rigorous traceability and the consistency so appreciated in professional kitchens.
Culinary uses | Highly prized in Mediterranean, Asian and fusion cuisine, octopus flowers can be used in a wide range of dishes:
► Grilled whole a la plancha or on the barbecue,
► poached and then sliced into carpaccio or salad,
► oven-roasted with herbs,
► or in a gastro version with emulsified sauces.
Its tender flesh, delicate iodised flavour and careful shaping make it a choice ingredient for creative or traditional dishes.
A product of an exceptional tenderness, available in two versions, raw and cooked.
This octopus has been selected by Le Delas for its exceptional tenderness. Captured in Morocco, it is processed and packaged in Spain, of which it is a specialty! It is eaten in tapas, as a starter, or main dish cooked in the gallega (Galician). If you want to work your octopus yourself, it is recommended to freeze the fresh octopus at least a day to soften it, it is already done. Its baked version is ready to serve and prevents any loss.
