Octopus Salad
['2 pound frozen octopus, thawed and rinsed', '1/3 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley', '3 garlic cloves, finely chopped', '1 celery rib, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise', '1 carrot, halved lengthwise and very thinly sliced crosswise', '1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil', '1/4 cup fresh lemon juice', '1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt', '1/4 teaspoon dried oregano']

Cut off and discard head of octopus, then cut tentacles into 1-inch pieces. Generously cover octopus with water in a heavy medium pot and gently simmer, uncovered, until tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Drain octopus in a colander and cool to room temperature, then transfer to a bowl. Stir in remaining ingredients, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and additional sea salt to taste.
Let stand 30 minutes for flavors to develop.
