5 Tips: 1. The main purpose of scalding Octopus is to remove the fishy smell and moisture. Turn off the fire after the water is boiled, put the Octopus in, immediately pick it up after the whiskers become curly, and blanch the Octopus with water temperature. This scalding method will make the Octopus very tender. 2. When frying octopus, the time should not be too long, and it is best to finish it in half a minute. If you are worried that you are in a hurry to delay the time, you might as well put all the main ingredients and seasonings in a bowl, saute garlic and ginger slices and sauce, then put all the materials into the pot together, stir fry for a few times, then pour in water starch and serve it out immediately.
