Octopus?

[Pau]

I guess it´s allowed in induction but once it´s boiled reduces a lot!
how should I calculate the portion? raw or boiled?

It´s delicious with paprika and olive oil!

Pau, DANDR only separates oysters and mussels as being higher in carbs than the others and should be restricted.
Octopus probably doesn't need to be counted, but if anything, I would go with the Raw weight.

YUM!!!! I love Octopus!!! I make it with lemon, oregano and olive oil! just a touch of garlic and hot pepper!!!!

I would count it however you eat it!...I believe fitday has it raw and cooked but I could be mistaken!

Seems pretty high in carbs to me! I think Fitday says 1.8g per oz! how many oz would you typically eat? I think it's fine for induction, just watch the portions...kind of like shrimp and some of the other higher carb mollusks.

I would find a way to work it in!.....just eat less and add more of something else!!! I love Octopus!!! I ate it during induction that and squid...just kept plugging it in to fitday!

Squid ..... mmmmmm!!! I love it too. I usually cook them in their own "ink-sauce" ...... YUM!!!!

I think I´ll have the octopus with some fried shrimps (with garlic) :nod
and a salad. And tomorrow I´ll eat the rest.

Japanese cook the ink sauce a lot and I have always wondered about the carb count. It really shouldn't be to high. Hummmm another question for Pammie.

Mollusks, octopus, common, raw 2.20g carbs
Mollusks, octopus, common, cooked, moist heat 4.40g carbs

If this is right I think fitday might be off? Squid is good too. You can find many fish and shellfish here:

Thank´s a lot!

I boiled and drained the octopus and just 150 grs were left :raving

I admit I ate it all but didn´t have more than 20 grams carbs that day.

Dessertthorn, I´ll cook squid in ink sauce soon and put the recipe. It´s easy and very tasty!!
