I almost entered this in the Recipe I Desire To Be Remembered For contest, but I figured that octopus was too daring. Any individual at Meals 52 must be psychic, parce que the very subsequent contest gives me the likelihood to half this palatable préface with you. I had never heard of campechana after I first ate it at La Laguna in Lake Chelan, Washington. Our server spoke very itsy-bitsy English, all I knew after I ordered it was that it contained octopus, which I adore. The taste was haunting, ravishing. After quite a few experimenting in my possess kitchen I managed to recreate it as I remembered the flavors and textures. I am hoping you admire this dish as significant as I attain! —Abra Bennett
