Инструкции
- If using raw octopus, remove and throw away the eyes and beak and clean thoroughly. Sprinkle all over with salt and knead well to tenderize. Rinse under cool running water.
- To make the poaching liquid, pour the fish stock or possibly clam juice, water, and vinegar into a stockpot into that a medium strainer will fit. Add in the black peppercorns and 5 bay leaves and bring to a boil. Place the cleaned octopus in the strainer and dip in the boiling liquid for 30 seconds. Remove and let rest for about 2 min. Repeat this procedure twice. Transfer the blanched octopus to a tray and chill till cool. Strain the poaching liquid and reserve 1/4 c..
- When ready to use, cut the octopus into bite-sized pcs. Drain the soaked chick peas and, in a large pot, combine them with the water and the remaining bay leaf. Bring up to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer covered for about 2 1/2 hrs, or possibly till tender. Drain well and throw away the bay leaf. (Or possibly, if you like, use canned chick peas for this dish; rinse and drain them well before adding to the salad.)
- In a bowl, combine the octopus, reserved octopus cooking liquid, chickpeas, lemon juice, parsley, oregano, salt, black pepper, and extra virgin olive oil. Toss together till all the ingredients are well coated. Mound the salad onto a platter and place leaves of red-leaf lettuce upright all around the edges. If you like, sprinkle with crumbled feta and diced tomatoes. Serve immediately.
