step-0
Ingredients
step-1
In a deep saucepan (about 10 liters) of poured water to half, add the Bay leaves, 4 cloves of garlic, 1 whole peeled onion and put on fire. Bring to a boil. Then throw the octopus (thawed not necessary) and cook about 1 hour over medium heat. Take out and leave to cool. Octopus changes color slightly red.
step-2
At this time, cut into big pieces and dice the onion, pour vinegar (I used wine) and add 1 tsp of sugar. Leave to marinate for cooking time of the octopus (this removes the bitterness of the onion).
step-3
Once the octopus is cooled, cut it into pieces and throw into a salad bowl
step-4
Drain vinegar from onions and add to the octopus
step-5
Add also the finely chopped garlic and parsley. Dressed with vinegar and olive oil to taste (salt not necessary)
step-6
Stir and... Bon appetit. Salad is a light, at the same time nutritious. Perfect for the heat.
