Roasted Red cabbage marinated Octopus, roasted sweet & corn with fresh peas, this dish is fished with a chimichurri of fresh herbs & fine diced tomatoes and onions.
I have always hated this treatment of octopus.. I am assuming red cabbage juice. First of all, gross, second of all, it looks so unnatural to the eye.
Octopus already has a beautiful colour.. why would you fuck with that

Beautiful and pleasing to the eye, but the mouthful looks dry. Any sauce to bring it all together ?

One of the coolest platings I have seen here, or anywhere ever. Really cool, I wish I had this kind of skill.

Never thought I’d see jason Howard on reddit. First time I saw the purple octopus dish had to have been 5+ years ago now

I don’t serve or eat octopus anymore (ethical reasons) but that is so stunning, I’m reconsidering that rule.

Looks great except all the obvious blowtorching. Food is better when cooked ya know.

Holy shit, as soon as I saw the purple I was “ this can’t be that damn chef from instagram” and lo-and-behold it’s the same guy. Keep up the good work chef.

I like how the peas and corn mimic the visual texture of the octopus

Damn chef. This is gorgeous. The colour choices are spot on , and I love the way that it’s almost woven together.

This is beautiful. Stunning. Having had a pet octopus, I can never eat them again but this plating almost makes me reconsider that.
I wonder what other seafood might work as well?

This is incredible. Beautiful work my friend. I love that the octopus how you colored the octopus with out anything artificial.

I love that you roasted the cabbage first – high heat brings out the flavors of cruciferous vegetables in a way that truly brings me joy.
Love even more than you carried that over with the summer veggies, but sweet ones to counter that bitter of cabbage and char.
Adding freshness and acidity in the finish is exactly what you needed to bring it all together. Much love chef!
I respect the effort it takes to make food that looks good, but am rarely impressed. But when someone manages to make a stunningly delicious dish that also happens to look amazing too – that’s when I’m wowed. This is a stunning plate that makes no sacrifice in terms of flavor/texture/aroma for its beauty – much respect.

How did you make it purple and how long did it take

Fantastic color composition. The Octopus is the main focus of the dish while the peas, carrots, and other items give a pastel contrast. Is the chimichurri underneath?

What does the marinated octopus taste like? Is it tart?

It looks beautiful. But it’s definitely undercooked and tough as fuck.

Looks like an Elden Ring talisman I love it.

Is the color all from the red cabbage???
