Steps:
- For the seafood: Place the octopus in a pressure cooker and cover with water by 4 inches. Add the salt, 1/4 cup olive oil, 3 sprigs thyme and 1 clove garlic. Lock the lid according to the manufacturer's instructions and pressure cook for 40 minutes. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for releasing the pressure. Drain, let cool and slice 1-inch thick.
- Meanwhile, place the remaining 3 cups extra-virgin olive oil in 8-quart saucepot with the lemon peels, remaining 3 sprigs thyme and 1 garlic clove. Heat to 190 degrees F. Poach the shrimp in the oil until cooked through, about 3 minutes, then remove with a slotted spoon to a bowl. Poach the calamari in the oil until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to another bowl and allow the shrimp and calamari to cool in the fridge.
- For the pickled chiles: Bring the vinegar to a boil in a saucepot with the peppercorns and bay leaf. Turn off the heat and let cool. Pour over the chiles in a bowl and allow to pickle for 20 minutes.
- For the tostadas: Clip a deep-frying thermometer to a large, heavy-bottomed skillet. Heat the vegetable oil to 375 degrees F. Fry tostadas until golden, 1 to 2 minutes each. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels to cool.
- For plating: Add all the chilled seafood, chiles, cucumber, radish, lime juice and chopped cilantro in a large bowl and mix together. Place a large scoop of seafood on a tostada, then garnish with cilantro leaves and drizzle with the oil. Repeat with remaining ingredients to make 7 more tostadas.
OCTOPUS ALLA KARVOUNA (CHARCOAL-GRILLED OCTOPUS)
Steps:
- For the pickled red onion: Slice the red onion into 1/8-inch strips and place in a large, heat-safe container. Bring the rice vinegar and sugar to a boil, stirring on occasion, until the sugar is completely dissolved, then turn off the heat. Let the liquid cool for 5 minutes, then pour the mixture into the container with the onions and let cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate. When the onions turn bright pink and fluffy, they are ready (4 to 24 hours).
- Octopus preparation: Spread out the octopus on a cutting board and cover completely with plastic wrap. Tenderize the octopus with a mallet, starting from the middle body extending down the tentacles. Transfer to a pan and lightly sprinkle the baking soda over both sides of the octopus, then let sit at room temperature for 1 hour.
- Poaching liquid: In a 10-quart pot, add 1 cup extra-virgin olive oil, wine and wine cork, peppercorns, bay leaves, garlic, lemons and 6 to 8 cups water. (The water line should be around 1 inch above the octopus once dropped into the pot.)
- Cooking the octopus: Bring the poaching liquid to just about a simmer, 180 to 190 degrees F. Rinse the resting octopus in the sink to remove the excess baking soda. Transfer the octopus to the pot and continue to simmer until the internal temperature reaches 175 degrees F, 60 to 70 minutes.
- Breaking down the octopus: Place the octopus on a cutting board, and separate each tentacle from the body using a knife. Using the back of the knife, gently remove the gelatinous skin from each tentacle. (If your knife skills are limited, you can use paper towels and gently wipe the skin from the tentacles.)
- Grilling the octopus: Light your back patio grill and bring it up to 450 to 500 degrees F. Lightly cover the octopus tentacle in 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil, salt and pepper. Place on the grill and sear, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Pull off the grill and let rest for a few minutes. Meanwhile, build the accompaniment salad by tossing the arugula with some pickled red onions, the remaining teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil, salt and pepper.
- Plating: On a clean cutting board, place the grilled octopus and slice the tentacles into 1-inch pinwheels. Arrange on a plate. Drizzle with some cabernet vinegar and Picual olive oil, then sprinkle with the herbs. To finish the plate, add a small handful of the dressed greens, and enjoy.
