"What to do with a can of octopus tenticles in the OS Forum!"
After all, it's the most intriguing post I've seen in ages...Tim0 -
I have actually been subjected to these in the past by my sister. I found them tasteless and chewy. Yuk.0

I also have a tin in the cupboard, but even better, mine is called "musky octopus"!!!!
OH bought them in Lidls and I was not sure what to do with them but I think I will try the seafood risotto idea0 -

Anyway, *I* would grab a fork and eat them straight from the tin! YUM! My mum would have put them in a paella. Rarely, as tentacles are rare in my country, very hard to find (and expensive when you do!)
Brains on the other hand are very cheap where I come from and my mum uses them in caneloni filling (spinach and ricotta) in place of the ricotta which is often not cheap....GC March Wk1 £28.72/£30 Wk2 £28.4/£29
