Steps:
- Whisk together juice, chile purée, onion, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a large bowl for marinade.
- Halve squid tentacles lengthwise and cut bodies (including flaps, if attached) crosswise into 1/4-inch rings.
- Poach scallops and shrimp in a medium pot of barely simmering water, stirring occasionally, until barely cooked through, about 1 minute. Stir in squid and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 40 seconds.
- Drain seafood well in a colander and add to marinade. Marinate, uncovered and chilled, at least 3 hours (for flavors to develop).
- Just before serving, stir in cilantro. Spoon seafood into shallow bowls with a slotted spoon, then spoon marinade over it.
Tips:
- Choose fresh calamari. This is key to making a great ceviche. Look for calamari that is firm and white, with no brown spots. Avoid calamari that is slimy or has a strong odor.
- Clean the calamari properly. This involves removing the head, tentacles, and ink sac. Be sure to remove the tough membrane from the body of the calamari as well.
- Cut the calamari into small pieces. This will help the ceviche to cook evenly.
- Use a good quality ceviche marinade. This is what will give your ceviche its flavor. There are many different recipes for ceviche marinade, so experiment until you find one that you like.
- Marinate the calamari for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the calamari.
- Serve the ceviche immediately. Ceviche is best when it is served fresh.
Conclusion:
Ceviche de calamari is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a light and healthy meal, give ceviche de calamari a try!
