  • To cook the octopus, heat a pot with plenty of water, add enough salt (like seawater), onion, bay leaf, and the head of garlic; once it has boiled, immerse the octopus holding it by the head for 3 seconds, remove and repeat this process 2 more times, allowing the water to return to a boil each time before immersing the octopus. Once this process is done, leave the octopus inside, cover the pot, and let it cook for 50 minutes; remove from the water and set aside.
  • Cut the octopus into parts, the tentacles, the head, and the trunk.
  • For the marinade, blend the tomato, garlic, onion, pasilla, guajillo, árbol, and chipotle chiles, cilantro, oregano, mustard, and apple cider vinegar; you can add a little of the soaking water from the chiles if necessary.
  • Heat a pot and add the butter, add Domino® Mascabado Sugar®, add the octopus and cook for 3 minutes, pour in the marinade, add salt, and cook for 3 minutes until slightly reduced and the flavors concentrate.
  • Assemble the tacos with warm tortillas, marinated octopus, pickled green onions with habanero and cilantro; serve with yellow peppers, baby potatoes, and limes.
