SCALLOP AND MANGO CEVICHE WITH THAI-LIME DIPPING SAUCE



Scallop and Mango Ceviche With Thai-Lime Dipping Sauce image

This dipping sauce, fresh with herbs and tangy with lime, is Blue Ginger's, Ming Tsai's restaurant, most requested recipe. It's based on the traditional Thai dip called cha-gio, which gets its flavor from fish sauce. That salty ingredient is nicely balanced with lime juice. The herbs darken as the sauce ages; this isn't a taste problem (quite the opposite, as the flavor deepends over time) but the sauce will lose it looks. If this bothers you make and store the sauce "base" only, then chop & add the herbs an hour before serving it.Ceviche is food "cooked" without heat. As with all ceviches, freshness is key. Make sure your scallops are pristine enough to eat raw. This technique uses citric acid or vinegar to firm and therefore"cooked". Here, mango adds its exotic sweetness to scallops, which cook in the flavorful dipping sauce. Ming Tsai - ming.com - Episode 105, Tags: sauce, appetizer, scallops or mangoes. ;)

CEVICHE DE PESCADO (FISH SALAD COOKED IN LIME JUICE)



Ceviche De Pescado (Fish Salad Cooked in Lime Juice) image

The appreciation of good food is one thing people all over the world have in common. When traveling around the world, dining on local cuisine is an important part of exploring different cultures and regions. On one of my first encounters with local cuisines from another country was in Lima, Peru. I had been invited there for business purposes by the then Minister of Health, Dr. Waldo Fernandez. Waldo and I had become friends when I was employed by St. Luke's/Texas Children's Hospital in Houston. As our friendship progressed, he had invited me to Peru, which I accepted My visit coincided with the convening of the Peruvian Congress of Cardiology at which I was invited to make a presentation. At the banquet that terminated the convention, I was introduced to the Peruvian National Drink - the "Pisco Sour." This drink was so delicious, I had to have the recipe and was given the original recipe by Waldo who had obtained it from the vineyard at Tabernero. I will publish this shortly. The next day, I was invited to visit the military hospital there in Lima by Dr. Jaime Contrerous, the Director of all the military hospitals in Peru. Dr. Contrerous invited me back into the patient exam area where he introduced me to a quite large gentleman on a treadmill. It turned out that this gentleman was the then "President for Life" or dictator. He was the last dictator of Peru before he stepped down and allowed free elections. "El Presidente" invited me to lunch at his personal golf course the next day. He sent his personal car to pick me up and deliver me to the golf course. When I arrived, I found a marvelous wonderland of flowers that I had never seen before. Birds of Paradise were everywhere. I was startled to see peons everywhere watering each flower by hand with huge water buckets. Other peons were cutting the grass on the course by hand using giant scissors! El Presidente had his staff set up tables on the 18th green and we were served lunch there. The first course turned out to be ceviche made with the local langostinos. Except for the sushi I had in Japan, I had never eaten raw fish before. Then El Presidente explained that the lime juice that was used in the preparation actually cooked the fish. It was so delicious, I asked for the recipe and was granted it.

LIME CEVICHE



Lime Ceviche image

If you haven't had ceviche, you are in for a real treat. You can make this with shrimp, fish, or scallops. Be aware that the seafood is not cooked in the traditional way, but is "cooked" in the lime juice mixture. There is a chemical process that occurs when the acid of the citrus comes in contact with the fish is similar what happens when the fish is cooked, and the flesh becomes opaque and firm. This ceviche is fresh and delicious!! Enjoy!

Shrimp Ceviche with Tequila and Lime
By Louisa Neumann
The ladies in one of my recent "ladies night out" classes went crazy over this fresh and flavorful appetizer.
Serves 4 as appetizer
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 quart water
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 small red onion, finely diced
½ medium red bell pepper, stem, ribs and seeds removed, finely diced
½ cup freshly squeezed lime juice (about 5½ limes)
¼ cup premium tequila, (2 ounces)
1 small jalapeño), stem and seeds removed, finely chopped
½ cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
1 small avocado, finely diced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Lime wedges, for garnish
Tortilla chips, for garnish

Steps:

  • Combine the kosher salt and water in a medium sauce pan over high heat; bring to the boil, then remove from the heat. Immediately pour in the shrimp, stirring occasionally, about one minute. (Note: The acid in the ceviche marinade continues to firm and "cook" the shrimp further; overcooking at this stage will produce rubbery shrimp.) Drain in a colander, then transfer to a large mixing bowl. Mix together the onion, bell pepper, lime juice, tequila and chili. Pour over the shrimp, and toss to combine; cover, and refrigerate for one hour. Do not marinate longer than one hour, or the shrimp will become tough. Gently fold in the cilantro and diced avocado; season to taste with salt and pepper, then cover and let sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes. When ready to serve, divide the ceviche among 4 chilled martini glasses; garnish with lime wedges and tortilla chips.
