Tips:
1. The octopus has been frozen, it is best to soak in light salt water to remove the special freezing smell;
2. In order to keep the frozen octopus tender and smooth, wrap a layer of cornstarch before blanching, because cornstarch has strong adhesion and can protect the octopus ring;
3. The octopus ring should not be blanched for a long time. The octopus will become very tough after blanching, so it is enough to put it on the fence for a few times;
4. When curry is cooked, adding proper amount of turmeric powder can enhance the color and fragrance;
5. The spoons, spoons and measuring cups used by the author in any food blog posts such as cooking, baking, etc., all use international measuring tools. They are not the spoons and cups we usually use to mix drinks and contain food at home or restaurants.
