origin
We fish the octopus in Atlantic waters respecting its life cycle, i.e. at the time that is least harmful to the species. In addition, we fish only for males. Females are returned to the sea.
To catch it, we use pots, which is a sustainable fishing device with minimal impact on the seabed.
Our seafood cooking facility just a few metres from the port of Getaria. The best quality octopus arrives here, and we prepare it in a traditional way, respecting traditions. Our aim is to ensure that it retains its properties and its delicious, authentic taste.

Tradition
You’ve surely heard of ‘scaring the octopus’ at least once. Those who understand this cook it according to the tradition of immersing it in boiling water for a few seconds and taking it out again several times.
Why? This is to ensure that the meat is tender. The sudden change in temperature when placed in boiling water breaks down the collagen in its fibres. This is how you get the perfect texture.

craftwork
Our seafood cooking facility is a small family-run business, where we work manually. We repeat the process of ‘scaring the octopus’ up to seven times. We put it in boiling water for three seconds, take it out for a few seconds, put it back in…
The expression ‘to scare’ is also used for some pulses, which are briefly blanched before cooking.
This process requires us to spend time with each octopus, one by one, but the result is worth it. This is how we obtain the ideal texture, the perfect cooking point.
And that’s how it gets to your table. Enjoy it cold or add a touch of heat, whichever you prefer. Galician style, grilled, barbecued… It’s finger-licking good!

flavour
that nourishes
A lot of protein, very little fat and almost no cholesterol: octopus is a super-healthy food. It offers many minerals that your body needs to keep your heart, brain and bones healthy.
For example, iron helps prevent anaemia, copper supports the immune system and selenium, which is not easily found in other foods, slows cellular ageing.
Cooked and vacuum-packed, it retains all its nutritional richness. Open the packet and enjoy!
