Is it necessary to freeze the octopus first before cooking if you are going to cook it later in the day after catching, or the very next day?
Suze, all cephalopods are much more tender if they are frozen for at least one day before use.
This beauty was caught the day before leaving, so I had no time to freeze it.
It was tasty, but not tender. Like overdone steak.
