Hi Duncan, 7-spices are a blend of 7 different spices. The use of these spices is optional. Hope this helps, Cheers.

I love Portuguese dishes, but never tried to cook myself. This was my first try and a big success! As good as I had at the Portuguese bistro or even better!

Hi Dan, so excited that you are working your way to master making polvo a lagareiro. It’s quite simple and you’ll like it. Not a silly question, and what it means is use only 8 grains of the 7-spice mix. Hope this helps. Do let us know how it turns out. Cheers.

Your recipe sounds better and yet still simple. Sorry if this is silly, but I don’t know what this is: 8 grains 7-spices and searches turned up various spice mixes that weren’t kernels.

Lol, Taylor, we felt exactly the same way. The good news is that it is quite simple to make at home. Start with frozen octopus and it will be much faster and easier. Cheers.

Wonderful to hear, Amanda. Indeed, octopus is quite delicious. As you plan on making it over the weekend, we highly recommend using frozen octopus. This will make the preparation process faster and easier. Do let us know how it turns out. Cheers.
