Tender octopus tentacles touched with flavorful char surround soft, seductive corn pudding with a firm, bright streak of acidity that wonderfully balances green aji pepper sauce, which is mild but perfectly creamy like aioli. It’s then dotted with small red bits of mild piquillo pepper, rounding out the sensational taste. —Jon Palmer Claridge
