👨🍳 Instructions
- Gently clean the live baby octopus by rinsing under cold water. If desired, lightly rub with coarse salt to remove excess slime, then rinse thoroughly.
- Carefully cut the octopus into bite-sized pieces, typically about 2-3 cm long. Discard the head and internal organs, focusing on the tentacles.
- Place the wriggling octopus pieces on a serving plate. Drizzle generously with sesame oil and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
- Serve immediately. Be cautious when eating due to the suction cups; chew thoroughly to prevent choking.
