Not much a fan of the octopus(I think I watched too much scary movies about giant octopus!) but my son loves it!

Without a slicer, maybe slicing and pounding it this might work as well. I like Cyma’s pickled octupus.

I thought those were shaved garlic! Hehehe. Great idea to turn the braised octopus into this!

I wished I “resurrected” our left over fried chickenwings. Its great to eat when they were newly fried, but when its cooled and they shranked, its kindda tough. I was too tired from the Easter Sunday activities, that my “cooking” brain is not working… so there goes about 6 pcs of chicken..now I feel bad.

So happy you were able to redeem the octopus dish. That’s what I do too, when an experiment in cooking does not exactly work out. I try to tweak the dish in order salvage it, most of the time I am able to make a good dish out of a bad experiment.

“We had carted an electric slicer with us to the beach…” brings to mind that old Muppets news flash about a crazed fugitive who terrorized a nudist beach with a bacon slicer…the officer called to the scene got a tip off…but will be back on duty after a short stay at the hospital…

You could make takoyaki. I just love the Japan Boat octopus takoyaki, which is twice-cooked. I never even notice chewing the octopus.
