Octopus is seriously delicious. But I always find myself ordering it and never actually cooking it myself. So today, we're going to cook a large octopus until extremely tender. And, like many things in cooking, there's no need to overthink it...it's actually quite simple. Perhaps even cooler is that we have fresh wasabi, which most of you have probably never seen before. Most "wasabi" you get in restaurants is simply green-colored horseradish, but I'm not easily fooled. The reality is, wasabi is expensive and also loses its sharp flavor in around 15 minutes, so the fact that it's such a time-sensitive ingredient means most people don't bother using it.
If you wish to make this octopus recipe, you can then grill or sear in a cast iron pan after cooking and cleaning. There's no need to follow my sushi steps afterward! My favorite way to cook octopus is to cook in the red wine bath (or any acidic bath), then clean off the gooey purple bits, slice into portions, and sear over high heat to get a dark crust. Then, I make a fresh, bright sauce such as a creamy cilantro sauce (yogurt, sour cream, lime juice, garlic, cilantro, seasonings). Whatever you do, enjoy!
The octopus, wasabi, and soy sauce were from my awesome friends at www.regalisfoods.com. I get many of my unique ingredients from here, and felt I'd leave the link for you to check out if interested!

“I know I know, my octopus jokes are-“

“I actually do party. I party”....Having to convince us that he parties 😂😂
maybe he’s trying to imply that he actually has friends or maybe “friends”
@@rileypetersen7302 I’m not sure about it now but he is only a bit over a year or 2 out of college, if he didn’t have friends that would be weird.
@@rileypetersen7302 I think he just mesnt as a joke with like no real meaning. But maybe he was making an excuse for having so much wine. Idk
whoa you found the joke
that made me laugh though
I actually like that he gives us a biology class instead of just cooking the octopus

PLS I SAW THAT LMAO
Wait was he just messing around or was he actually serious?
@@gi5235 Probably... We’ll never know until he comments here
I noticed that! The slight inflection in his voice leads me to believe he was joking - knowing full well it’s Korean. But not sure
I aint korean but I know that korean words lmao
Nick: The soy sauce is straight from Japan, just take a look at the bottle if you don't believe me.
The Bottle: *Has Korean writing on it.*
Is that ur real name?
AHHHHH I was like uhhh that’s Korean...
Yeah.... pretty sure that's Korean lol
dude probably thinks soy sauce originated in Japan
🤣
As a Japanese, I never expected that you would put the octopus into boiled wine🍷to make sushi🍣

Nick just out here casually using the octopus like a puppet and sliding it around the cutting board lmao--
I love these recipes because he clarifies this is very different from japanese sushi. This is his own take/creation on the subject using his own idea. Love the clarification. Excellent, and it looks phenomenal. The way he made the octopus in that wine vat reminds me very much of Italy.
Different eras of Nick DiGiovanni channel
1) Making dishes of coco era
2) Tanghulu era
3) Recreating burgers, fried chicken era
4) Sushi era
You've forgotten the Wagyu era
Can't wait for the vanilla extract era because im still waiting for it.
WHY DID YOU COPY KY PFP
Wagyu era
@@basedluger5192 who
I feel like nick in real life is so cool, friendly and full of humor. He's like that guy who just brings you laughter when you are sad
He’s a grown ass man? How swearing make him unfriendly??
@Reanne Mascarenhas you shouldn’t be on internet if you aren’t used to people swearing lol
You don’t know yet you jump
To the conclusion that he’s unfriendly based on the fact he said a swear word? You’re weird
@Reanne Mascarenhas You still don’t cuss?
@Reanne Mascarenhas Not swear words ;-;
Nick : look how beautiful she is
Nick seconds later *cute voice* : he has been decapitated
:))) love you nick 😹
The second I read that, he actually said it 😂
@@scoopyloop5237 true
It was cool how you compared the wasabi to cucumber! I had a very different experience with wasabi when i tried it freshly grated on wagyu with some egg yolk. It tasted wildly different from horse radish and my favorite way to describe the flavor is by comparing it to a home grown carrot (but with that horse radish bite of course lol)
I love the cameraman
Whenever nick ask him if he is still recording he says no and while he is actually still recording
No, I think they are off cam its just her girlfriend probably is the one recording on phone lol.
Nick is the only guy that I don't skip his sponsor cause it's food😂
Nick: we dont want to shock this octopus with this boiling hot water
Me: u mean 2% of water and 98% wine
SO TRUE LMAO
Crab, a whole cow, a octopus, a geoduck
Hes gonna catch them all for sure!
"we don't wanna shock the octopus with really really hot boiling water"
Right. Because that's what that's octopus is the most concerned about
It’s probably dead. It’s head is flat; I don’t see the brain
@Hi World r/woooooooshh
I mean he makes a good point if you add a cold ingredient to boiling water you’ve already ruined the process of getting it as tender as possible.
I'm a man of simplicity; I see Nick's videos, I press the like button even before watching.

@Megagamer 52 r/woosh
@Joshua EdwinRoehl trash
Fun fact : Japan didn't grated wasabi like that, they use special one that made of shark skin and didn't peel the skin off to make wasabi have more mint flavors and more fresh
I was cringing as he was peeling and wasting so much Wasabi lol 😆
Nice likes
A tear actually came out my eye watching him scrape and grate that root the way he did😢
he didn’t use it since he didnt want to encourage the killing of sharks. (extinction) he said it in a reply.
I cried when he wasted the wasabi and then prepared the sushi like a very oblivious white man 😭. Torching the octopus ON THE RICE forming it with his thumb instead of fingers. And then put the wasabi on the rice side instead of octopus side. And making the rice soggy with soy sauce on top 😭 BUTCHERED IT
I love how you're moving the octopus about while explaining and giving us octo facts.
Amazing technique Nick! Love it man!
10:33 "let’s take a bite and see how this is"
*puts the whole sushi in his mouth*
Me: 👁👄👁
Heh 😏
That’s the correct way to eat sushi. You don’t take small bites or it falls apart
No shit sherlock

The way that octopus splat on the cutting board made me laugh for some reason
Same doe
man i love these cooking channels its so interesting
6:08 BRUH he said thats a perfect medium rare but thats literally raw in the middle and well done on the outside
thats why i hate tenderloin, everytime that happens
burned on outside too
@@user-rk7rl7tm5w no thats actually not true that can happen with any steak its just that he had his pan too hot
Nick: “We aren’t filming right?”

Yes, I too watched the video
Time stamp?
We saw bozo
No way I didn’t see that part
11:20 um... that's Korean...
But anyway, that octopus looks so good! It's been a while since I had some 🤧

I hate you
I burst out laughing when the beat the octopus. Why was that so funny!
I can’t stop watching your videos!
*Something in the waters exists*
Nick : we can make a sushi outta that.
Fun fact: the board generally used to grate wasabi is actually sharkskin. It doesn’t look like it but up close, sharkskin is a lot like sandpaper.
I really respect Nick and I appreciate how he says it's not the most traditional method because it's definitely not, I've only had a year of sushi chef experience but in the heaps I've learned already from my boss and other chefs, it pains me to watch this video haha, from forming the rice, and the way he cut the octopus. Nevertheless I'm sure it came out tasting great, Nick is a great chef and I like seeing his creative ways of making things!
I love how nick says, let’s take a bite and eats the whole thing.
He always does the we aren’t filming right joke and it’s funny every time
but it’s bound to get old

its probably because the camera filters tweak the color of the food
are we gonna just not say anything about him completely fuckin up this tenderloin?

Was wondering what to do with the octopus I pull up while shrimping, thanks for the ideas Nick!

3:33, I was absolutely DYING!! :D
I love octopus and squid fried, the chewy meat inside with the crispy breading makes so much flavor and umami in one bite
“Let’s just take a bite” , swallows the whole thing😂
in CZcams shorts, Nick looks so perfect, but watching his long CZcams videos and seeing his mistakes and funny quirks just makes me love the guy even more
I once caught an octopus in the sea with my dad while snorkeling. Its actually a beautiful and very smart creature that is often looked down on

@@generaldernappe Just because you don't see a danger doesn't mean there isn't one. Corona isnt a shiny game indicator above someones head, it could just be that one guy with a slight cough or sniffle in the corner which can easily spread fast since it is airborne. Please wear masks and party safely, because if you aren't doing it to protect others atleast protect yourself.
