Galician-style octopus: a gastronomic tradition
Galician-style octopus, also known as “pulpo á feira” or “polbo á feira” in Galician, is one of the most emblematic dishes of Galician cuisine. Its origins date back to the fairs and popular festivals of Galicia, where it was cooked in large copper cauldrons and served with potatoes, olive oil and paprika.
The secret of the perfect Galician-style octopus
At Mesón Roberto, we are experts in the preparation of Galician-style octopus. The octopus is slowly cooked in water with sea salt to achieve a soft and tender texture. It is then sliced and served with boiled potatoes, adding olive oil, sweet paprika and coarse salt, which gives it a characteristic flavour and a touch of colour.
