We went to Greece a few months ago and I actually tried octopus even tho it looks super creepy to me. It was delicious! So now i need to make it myself. Im super excited to make this for the first time! It looks really easy.
@@tuffgong2568 I couldnt believe I loved it. It still looks creepy to me, lol! Its funny cuz I saw it served to someone at a restaurant and they had the entire thing on a platter. I said, um.... no thank you! I do not want that. I only want the legs/tentacles, please 🤣🤣 So, im still very particular so I dont know how easy it will be for me to cook it. Its gonna be slimy, etc 😬 But, it needs to be boiled, then grilled to get the proper texture. And it was served with some olive oil, butter, lemon sauce 😋
I just caught one in the greek seaside! Smaller than yours, but we'll prepare it like that! Great channel by the way! 8k subscribers?! WTH?! Instant fan!
What is the purpose of dunking the octopus in boiling water to curl the tentacles first before boiling, rather than just dunking the whole octopus in boiling water? I don't really see a difference in the added step.
The tentacles curl uniformly and not bunched up under the body when you drop the whole thing in. The uniform spread helps it cook evenly, and makes it easy to cut up after it is cooked.
Salt scrub then rinse to get rid of slime and funk, turn head inside out for cooking, scrape off the skin after boiling if not grilling. This does really look bangin though...
Had the most amazing octopus in Mexico legitimately 7ish servings in 2 visits to the restaurant...I've been craving it ever since it was perfection hope using your recipe i can copycat it 😋
Same here; after trying it in Mexico I was completely hooked. I then had it in Italy and again LOVED IT!!! I buy it wherever I see it sold - mostly at Whole Foods.
Thank you! What do you mean? When you boil it it’s to tenderize the inside of the meat. Then, you can grill or sear on a very high heat to get that outer crisp!
Where is your apron? Wow, I’m really impressed with you not being phased by cleaning & dunking Mr Lincoln in boiling water. Good job! I’m dying to try this.
It’s not gory. Don’t say that to people that turns them off. See them butcher cow a pig a lamb that is gory cleaning octopus or a fish is not that horrible
I really laughed about the gorey warning: I love octopus so much but my father is sickened just by the looks of it or just knowing that there is some in the fridge. Snails are just fine for him by the way...😄
it's one of those animals that definitely is controversial for a reason. i do like to enjoy it once in a while and i am glad you liked the video! i know its tough for some to watch who are sensitive to eating animals!
Cleaning Octo is not that bad. The other vids I watched stated to clean the head first. Some said breaking the ink sack can be a pain. Good job. I had not thought to tenderizing with something hard. Still, you are grilling versus stir fry.
looks amazing i wana try wow ,nice !!! ur so pretty too,u really sound and behave like miley cirus haha have anyone told oyu this nice channel u really deserve more subs !!!! 4.13 not fair haha keep on the good work love ur sense of humor !
@@SkylerBouchard it`s true all what i have said and i do understand and see many amazing channels that has vewy less subs, youtube is like a game ,and it takes a lot of hard work mixed with luck ,as an artist this is why i do not want to make a channel so i wont feel bad haha ,, i mean i know exposure is important, but i do not want to fall into a loop and end up sad about my channel but you have a lot of potential and a lovely charecter ! keep on the good work and expose your work more on more soeciual medias !!! that`s is how you will gain more followers !and it would help to see what trends are there tho i think your videos are well made, maybe you can add soemthing that is unique like a helper in youc kitchen who is a fictional toy or a a charecters and you both maybe crack jokes mayeb haha i seen so many channels doing this ,but really most of all haha you really!!!!! resemble miley syrus a lot !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!use that haha
Which ingredients don’t you know about? Babaganoush is a very common eggplant spread that’s served in middle eastern cultures and zaatar is a middle eastern spice blend that you can substitute for whatever you want. You can sub both those things ! I just love middle eastern cuisine
So glad to see that not all good looking women are prissy or too worried about the ick factor with regards to octopus. Usually they’d be repulsed by this, let alone consume it. But not this lady. She knows she’s got a piece of special treat food, and can’t wait to enjoy making it into a dinner. Great to see 😎
It is delicious, but I have a problem eating intelligent, very intelligent, animals. Lobsters I have no problem with - their closest relatives are cockroaches, and no one on the planet has any problem stepping on a roach. Go figure.
Gory? Sweetheart, you're talking to the guy that grew up watching Horror movies, ever seen Lucio Fulci Movies? Watch them and you'll know what gory is with a captial G.
It would be more interesting if the lady would just show us how to clean the damn thing, rather than keep talking about the gory details of cleaning an octopus. She makes the ask look and sound more distasteful than it really is.

Thank you for this comment, octopus really creeps me out, but I want to try it if for nothing else because octopus is incredibly healthy.

I guess it tendorises it

Tempers the octopus

Thanks for stopping by and let me know if you like it!
She's stunning. The food looks good as well.
Quality video. I thought you had like over a million subscribers. You are on your way! Best wishes!
Aw thank you so much!!!
You didn’t talk much about the cleaning, running it underwater; will that get all the slime off it? Great recipe btw
20minutes - Is it enough? I tried it once and it was like a rubber
I chuckled. Great presentation style
thank you!!
Stellar vid!
Looks awesome! .. I have 1.5lbs of raw tenticles only ... would I boil these like you did for say 15 mins prior to cooling / grilling? .. ty :)
Wow tht looks amazing!!! Great video!
thank you!!
Amazing , could it be done crispy or it won't work since it is jelly
Thank you! What do you mean? When you boil it it’s to tenderize the inside of the meat. Then, you can grill or sear on a very high heat to get that outer crisp!
@@SkylerBouchard thanks i meant does it also get crunchy from the inside incase you over cooked it
1:21 is the other octopus named Lynn or Lori
hmmmmm lori i think
Is it tender ?
Just tried this, amazing!!!
yay!!!!
I thought yiu were supposed to wife the dark parts off? Can anyone confirm this?
what do you mean?
@@SkylerBouchard wipe the purplish slime
Its nice to watch
Looks delish!
thank you!!!
Thank you very much for your videos. It is very interesting to look at you and listen to your recipes))) you are beautiful, good luck to you)
Thank you!!!
I love octopus. Love the video!
thank you so much!
Got some boiling right now, first time making it, thank you for the video.
Was it delicious?
Did you like it?
Nice! Will catch myself a octupus and prepare it like this, thank you👍
wooo let me know how it turns out!
Wow😍 yummy😋 Are you Middle Eastern?
i am not! but my husbands side of the family is from Algeria where they enjoy similar flavor profiles as middle eastern cuisine
If you don’t want to deal with the head can you just cut it off and toss it when butchering?
Yes! Or ask the seafood people to cut it off so it doesn’t go to waste. You’ll still have to remove the beak tho
Yes!
Delicious! I adore Octopuses?
I ate it last week in Porto. Very delicious
right its so goodddddd
Thanks so much for sharing !!!
thank you for watching!!!
Where is your apron? Wow, I’m really impressed with you not being phased by cleaning & dunking Mr Lincoln in boiling water. Good job! I’m dying to try this.
let me know if you do!! thank you!
What was so gruesome?
You are a savage!!!! Love it.
hahaha thank you!
You made it very easy for me yummy I'm going to make mine now 😋
yay! let me know how it turned out!
So awesome
they eat with the beak
You are so pretty. I’ve been wanting to try to grill octopus but it’s always intimated my old bum. You make it seem easy, but I reckon it’s not.
aw thank you so much! i promise you, follow this and you will be able to do it. If I could do it for the first time in this video, you can too!
It’s not gory. Don’t say that to people that turns them off. See them butcher cow a pig a lamb that is gory cleaning octopus or a fish is not that horrible

I really laughed about the gorey warning: I love octopus so much but my father is sickened just by the looks of it or just knowing that there is some in the fridge. Snails are just fine for him by the way...😄
Funny, I was just thinking it's the opposite for me.
it's one of those animals that definitely is controversial for a reason. i do like to enjoy it once in a while and i am glad you liked the video! i know its tough for some to watch who are sensitive to eating animals!
I really dig calamari, and the only time I ever had octopus I loved it…
Looks killer!!!
thank you!! let me know if you try
2358 looking good!!! Mr Lincoln has never looked this tasty!!!
I like your videos 👍👍👍
Wow I try it.😮

Hilarious commentary, and looks delicious

i felt guilty the whole time llol but it really isnt that daunting
I subscribed just because of this video... and my fear of messing up my first octopus.
Me too!

How do you only have 4K that’s crazy
well thank you! i appreciate the support. Feel free to subscribe as I'm launching a bunch of new videos :)
Thank you beautiful 😘
thank u for watching!
looks delish Sky!
thank you!
Friendly advice, please clean your grill before cooking anything if you don't want
to get sick
the grill has been cleaned many times its impossible to get it immaculate every time and also the heat kills any bacteria thank you!
Damn. I’m having Lincoln tonight
😂
lmfaoooo
You remind me of penny from big bang theory, awesome recipe!!
thank you!
I won’t eat clam, muscles, oysters, snail or conch but I’ll eat octopus because if it’s rubbery texture.
And yes! The darn thing looks alien.
You are so adorable 😂
lol thank you for watching!!!
FFS get to starting the procedure.
Octopi???? You mean octopuses?
Half of them ingredients I don't even know about to. Too bougie for my little kitchen
Which ingredients don’t you know about? Babaganoush is a very common eggplant spread that’s served in middle eastern cultures and zaatar is a middle eastern spice blend that you can substitute for whatever you want. You can sub both those things ! I just love middle eastern cuisine
Just as a fun fact: the plural of octopus is octopuses. It's not like cactus. It's like walrus. 😆
NEEDED THIS! Thank you 🤣
I adore octopus, it's my soul animal but I also I love to eat them lol
right its so hard to choose which side to be on
So glad to see that not all good looking women are prissy or too worried about the ick factor with regards to octopus.

But not this lady. She knows she’s got a piece of special treat food, and can’t wait to enjoy making it into a dinner.
Great to see 😎
well thank you! very nice of you !
Octopuses not octopi.
thank you!
this is like a horror movie
OMG, just shock-freeze it to get it soft.
i have not heard of this method!
@@SkylerBouchard It`s a trick my Mom uses to soften it.
Great video. 👍. New Subscriber here.
thanks so much!! i hope you like my new series about dinner party recipes! in addition to more how to videos :)
Chef Skyler, lets express some maturity and professionalism here.....lol
Yeaaaaa, I’ll stick to the restaurant lol
lol i get that
I did the same thing. It was actually fucking terrible
Weird! I wonder what happened
Take a shot each time she says gruesome
Love this game
My grandfather said you are super gorgeous
You don't need to pound the octopus the three dip is ridiculously please STOP. Cook it just like corn beef comes out perfect every time
😂
We’re judging you 🦑
i understand
Octopus is even better than squid
i do agree
It is delicious, but I have a problem eating intelligent, very intelligent, animals. Lobsters I have no problem with - their closest relatives are cockroaches, and no one on the planet has any problem stepping on a roach. Go figure.
i understand that !
Gory? Sweetheart, you're talking to the guy that grew up watching Horror movies, ever seen Lucio Fulci Movies? Watch them and you'll know what gory is with a captial G.
Hahahahaha
You should have me fun
And you don't know to cut off and clean the head? Oh yes, you also don't know know to tenderize octopus before cooking? Lol
Huh?
blue contact lenses?
It would be more interesting if the lady would just show us how to clean the damn thing, rather than keep talking about the gory details of cleaning an octopus. She makes the ask look and sound more distasteful than it really is.
honestly it really is gory especially bc they're very intelligent animals. if you dont like the humor just mute it haha
Thank you for at least walking threw besides MMM. Lol really
thanks for watching!
this is not simple
The world has gone gaga . People not comfortable eating or watching a normal cooking process are you guys cucu
Really if your sanative so also say if your allergic so I stopped there thumbs down
Yum ❤
Why are you getting so dramatic and just clean the friggin thing and stop editorializing just get to the point
👌
I fear this comment is more dramatic than anything else 😂
