Marinated Octopus Salad Directions First, boil your octopus for about 35-45 minutes depending on its size. While you are waiting, finely chop all other ingredients and set aside. When octopus is ready, cool down with cold water and clean away the slimy red skin and remove the "head" which is the mouth area of the octopus. Do this after boiling the octopus instead of before because it is easier. Chop up your octopus into 2 cm cubes, add all the other ingredients, and add oil and vinegar as if it were a salad. (Greeks use heaps!!!) Hint: this dish is tastier if you put it in the fridge for about half an hour before serving. Kali oreksi!!!
