Yield Makes 3 cups, serving 6 as an appetizer

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 generous pound unpeeled smallish shrimp (I prefer the ones that are 41/50 count to a pound)
1/2 medium white onion, chopped into 1/4 inch pieces
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus several sprigs for garnish
N/A fresh cilantro sprigs
1/2 cup ketchup
1 to 2 tablespoons vinegary Mexican bottled hot sauce (such as Tamazula, Valentina or Búfalo, the latter being on the sweet side)
About 2 tablespoons olive oil, preferably extra-virgin (optional, but recommended to smooth out sharpness)
1 cup diced peeled cucumber or jícama (or 1/2 cup of each)
1 small ripe avocado, peeled, pitted and cubed
Salt
Several lime slices for garnish
Tostadas or tortilla chips, store-bought or homemade or saltine crackers for serving

Steps:

  • Cooking and Marinating the Shrimp.
  • Bring 1 quart salted water to a boil and add 2 tablespoons of the lime juice. Scoop in the shrimp, cover and let the water return to the boil. Immediately remove from the heat, set the lid askew and pour off all the liquid. Replace the cover and let the shrimp steam off the heat for 10 minutes. Spread out the shrimp in a large glass or stainless steel bowl to cool completely. Peel and devein the shrimp if you wish: One by one lay the shrimp on your work surface, make a shallow incision down the back and scrape out the (usually) dark intestinal tract. Toss the shrimp with the remaining 1/2 lime juice, cover and refrigerate for about an hour.
  • The flavorings.
  • In a small strainer, rinse the onion under cold water, then shake off the excess liquid. Add to the shrimp bowl along with the cilantro, ketchup, hot sauce, optional olive oil, cucumber and/or jícama and avocado. Taste and season with salt, usually about 1/2 teaspoon. Cover and refrigerate if not serving immediately.
  • Serving the ceviche.
  • Spoon the ceviche into sundae glasses, martini glasses, or small bowls: garnish with sprigs of cilantro and slices of lime. Serve with tostadas, tortilla chips or saltines to enjoy alongside.
  • Working Ahead:
  • The ceviche is best made the day it is served. The flavorings can be added to the shrimp a few hours in advance.

AUTHENTIC MEXICAN SHRIMP COCKTAIL (COCTEL DE CAMARONES ESTILO MEXICANO)



Authentic Mexican Shrimp Cocktail (Coctel de Camarones estilo Mexicano) image

I prepare this refreshing shrimp cocktail for my family a lot during the hot summer days. Being a Mexican family, we always add Mexican hot sauce (such as Valentina® or Tapatio®) and serve with saltine crackers on the side. The trick is to start with well-chilled shrimp, ketchup, and tomato juice cocktail so it can be ready after only chilling 1 hour in the fridge. Top with additional hot sauce and avocado slices if desired. Enjoy!

CEVICHE DE CAMARON



Ceviche De Camaron image

This shrimp ceviche "cocktail" was orginated by Rick Bayless. I was a bit nervous about it at first but it is GREAT. I definately recommend using the jicama rather than the cucumber but both are good. This is best made the day it is served.

Tips:

  • Clean the shrimp properly. To clean the shrimp, remove the head, shell, and tail. Devein the shrimp by making a shallow cut along the back of the shrimp and removing the black vein.
  • Marinate the shrimp in a citrus-based marinade. The marinade will help to tenderize the shrimp and add flavor. Common citrus fruits used in ceviche marinades include limes, lemons, and oranges.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your ceviche. Common vegetables used in ceviche include tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, and cilantro. You can also add other vegetables, such as avocado, mango, or pineapple.
  • Season the ceviche to taste. Common seasonings used in ceviche include salt, pepper, garlic, and chili peppers. You can also add other seasonings, such as cumin, oregano, or paprika.
  • Serve the ceviche immediately. Ceviche is best served immediately after it is made. However, you can also refrigerate it for up to 2 hours before serving.

Conclusion:

Ceviche is a refreshing and flavorful dish that is perfect for a summer party or gathering. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious ceviche that will impress your friends and family.
