Popular in Japanese cuisine, octopus legs or Tako Ashi are widely seen. They are plump and tender, with a delicate sweet flavour. They are versatile and can be enjoyed as sushi, shabu-shabu, in salads, or even deep fried! We highly recommend lightly boiling our Nama Tako Ashi as ours come raw, to bring out their sweetness and to tenderise them. Bringing them in raw allows you to season the liquid with whatever flavours you want to customise the flavours of your Tako Ashi!
