Ceviche With Ahi Tuna image

This is my own creation using both modern and traditional ceviche methods. The key of course is fresh fresh Ahi. There's nothing better. Like 'butter'. [email protected] of the reasons that a really terrific Ceviche is , well, really terrific is the type of fish and/or seafood used. It MUST be absolutely of the freshest quality. A friend of mine and his girlfriend were recently in Hawaii and were raving about the quality of the Ahi there. We had a conversation on our foodservice professionals board ( www.restaurantbeast.com )about cryovac Ahi which is harvested in Hawaii and immediately IQF and placed in cryovac so that no oxygen can destroy it's freshness. Rumor has it that Roy Yamaguchi uses this type of Ahi for his restaurant in Palm Dessert (most likely not for his famous in Hawaii). My version is a bit of a cross between two different styles. Shrimp that has been quickly blanched pink, halibut or other sushi-grade fish can also be used in place of the Ahi.

I'm allergic to cilantro, so I substituted parsley in this recipe. It turned out great!

This ceviche is a great way to use up leftover fish. I had some grilled salmon that I flaked and added to the ceviche. It was delicious!

This ceviche was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add more lime juice and cilantro next time.

I'm not a huge fan of fish, but I loved this ceviche! The marinade really mellowed out the flavor of the tuna.

The ceviche was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I'll probably use less jalapeƱo next time.

This ceviche is a delightful burst of freshness and flavor! The ahi tuna is perfectly tender and succulent, and the marinade infuses it with a vibrant blend of citrus, herbs, and spices. I served it with avocado, red onion, and cilantro, and the comb
