GREEK GRILLED BABY OCTOPUS SALAD
From the 2004 Food & Wine calendar. The recipe notes say to team it with a glass of Orlando St Helga Riesling...but in my opinion it would go great with an icy cold glass of retsina :) The servings are based on an entree size.

- Using a large, sharp knife, cut off the octopus’s sack-like hood just below the eyes and either discard or use to make a few servings of octopus keftedes (see box). Divide the octopus into eight pieces, keeping the tentacles intact. Place in a heavy saucepan with the garlic, bay leaf, rosemary, thyme, vinegar, balsamic, half cup of olive oil, and black pepper. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 45 to 50 minutes, or until the tentacles are tender but al dente and not at all stringy.
- Remove the octopus from the heat and place it in a bowl with enough of the pot juices to cover. Set aside until ready to grill. (At this point, you can bring the octopus to room temperature, then refrigerate in its cooking liquid for up to 24 hours.)
- Strain the octopus cooking liquid and discard the solids. Transfer the liquid back to the pot and simmer over medium-low heat until reduced to a loose syrupy consistency.
