Steps:
- Rinse the octopus under cold, running water and place in pot dripping wet (you don't want to dry it off- this is the moisture it will cook in).
- Add the vinegar and garlic and cover the pot.
- Bring to the boil over low heat.
- It is tender when pierced easily with a fork (this can vary from octopus to octopus, so time is not a good indicator of doneness in this case).
- When cool enough to handle, strip off suckers and reddish-purple membrane on flesh (these are delicious, but the octopus is more presentable without them- enjoy them by yourself!).
- Cut the octopus into small tidbits.
- And arrange on a platter, drizzled with olive oil and vinegar and sprinkled with oregano.
- If you are going to serve the octopus another day, pack it in a jar or small tupperware bowl, cover with olive oil, top with 3-4 tblsps of vinegar and 1 tblsp oregano.
- Give a stir.
- Cover and refrigerate.
