CITRUS CEVICHE WITH SHRIMP AND SCALLOPS
This is a twist on a Emeril Lagasse recipe from 2005. Recipe is healthy, flavorful, and easy to prepare. My family doesn't like "hot" stuff, so this recipe is mild. That being said, feel free to add serrano chiles or jalapeno peppers to your taste. I made about 4 different ceviches the other day for taste testing (yes, my husband is spoiled) and this was our favorite. NOTE: I have made this several times since the original posting and wanted to post a quick update. Feel free to sub sweet bell pepper (diced) for the cucumber. Also add salt and lemon pepper to taste at the end AFTER it is "cooked". I usually let mine "cook" for 6 hours, not the 3 recommended.

Steps:
- In a medium-sized stainless steel or clear glass bowl, place lemon, lime and orange juices.
- Stir in the shrimp, scallops, cucumber and red onion. If you are adding chiles or peppers, add them now as well.
- Refrigerate for 3 hours. The shrimp and scallops should have turned white (from opaque) meaning that the citrus juices have "cooked" them.
- 30 minutes prior to serving, remove from the fridge and stir in the tomato, avocado, chopped cilantro, and olive oil.
- Serve in martini glasses with saltine crackers on the side if you want to be fancy, otherwise just put the bowl out with a few spoons and a whole bunch of saltine crackers and tortilla chips and let everyone dig in!
- To serve, divide the ceviche between 6 chilled martini glasses.

Steps:

- 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.
SHRIMP AND SCALLOP CEVICHE
Steps:
- Toast the saffron, stirring over low heat, in a dry skillet until fragrant, then stir in the clam juice. Simmer until reduced to 1/2 cup, 5 to 6 minutes. Set saffron broth aside to cool. Whisk together the aj amarillo, saffron broth, orange juice, and lime juice in a large bowl. Stir in diced and chopped vegetables and herbs.
- Now it's time to poach the seafood. Have the bowls of ice water ready. Cut the shrimp in half lengthwise. Remove any tough muscles from the sides of the scallops. Poach shrimp in 4 quarts simmering salted water, stirring occasionally until just cooked through, 40 seconds. Scoop out shrimp with a slotted spoon and add to one bowl of ice water. Return water to a simmer and poach scallops the same way, transferring them to the second bowl of ice water and discarding the cooking water. Drain the seafood well and toss it in the saffron broth mixture. Season with salt and your favorite hot pepper sauce to taste. (We used a fruity habanero chile sauce.) Chill the ceviche, covered, 1 hour and serve garnished with sliced jalapeños and a sprig of cilantro.

Tips:
- Use fresh seafood: The fresher the seafood, the better the ceviche will be. If you can't get fresh seafood, frozen seafood is a good option.
- Choose the right type of seafood: Not all seafood is suitable for ceviche. Some good options include shrimp, bay scallops, calamari, and octopus.
- Cut the seafood into small pieces: This will help the ceviche to marinate more evenly.
- Use a good quality citrus juice: The citrus juice is the main ingredient in ceviche, so it's important to use a good quality juice. Freshly squeezed lime juice is the best option.
- Add other ingredients to taste: There are many other ingredients that you can add to ceviche, such as chopped onion, cilantro, jalapeño, and avocado. Experiment with different ingredients to find the combination that you like best.
- Marinate the ceviche for at least 30 minutes: This will give the seafood time to absorb the flavors of the marinade.
- Serve the ceviche chilled: Ceviche is best served chilled. You can chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Conclusion:
Ceviche is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer party or a light lunch. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make a ceviche that will impress your friends and family.
