CEVICHE WITH AHI TUNA
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.

TUNA CEVICHE
Fresh chunks of tuna, ripe mango, and creamy avocado combine to make the perfect appetizer or a tasty lunch. I love to eat this with lime-seasoned tortilla chips, but it's just as delicious served in lettuce cups. I try to keep the tuna, avocado and mango pieces between 1/4- and 1/2-inch in size. Best eaten same-day, but can be kept 1-2 days in fridge, keeping in mind that texture will change.

AHI TUNA AND BABY SHRIMP CEVICHE W/PAPAYA SALAD AND COCONUT
Ceviche is a non-cook prep method, letting the fish marinate and cook in citrus juices. The original recipe calls for Hamachi - also know as Amberjack - but this fish is not recognized by food.com. If you find it, use 1/2 cup of each type of fish. The ceviche needs to marinate for 1 hour so please plan ahead. Time for marinating is included in prep time.

HEALTHY TUNA SALAD OR TUNA CEVICHE
This recipe has been called both tuna salad but it really has little that resembles the typical tuna salad. My friends have also called it tuna ceviche and it would be a little more accurate at describing what this is. Is really healthy and it goes well with crackers or on tostadas. I make very little because I'm the only one who eats it so feel free to double or triple the recipe for bigger parties.

Steps:
- Cook your corn by preferred method. I usually buy unhusked corn and stick it 4 minutes in the microwave after I've soaked it in water for a 1 minute or 2.

- Mix in remaining ingredients, except for the lemon or lime juice, salt, and pepper. Feel free to seed the serrano pepper if you're not used to spicy food.
- Add lemon or lime juice slowly and mix add more or less according to taste.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve as topping on tostadas or on crackers.
TUNA CEVICHE WITH AVOCADO AND CILANTRO
Steps:
- 1 Line a baking sheet with plastic wrap. Arrange the tuna slices in a single layer on the baking sheet and freeze until fairly firm, about 15 minutes. 2 Stack the slices of tuna. Using a very sharp chef's knife, cut the tuna into neat 1/4-inch cubes. Transfer the cubed tuna to a medium glass or ceramic bowl and stir in the red onion, lime juice and black pepper. Cover the tuna with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour, stirring gently with a plastic spatula every 15 to 20 minutes (the diced tuna will change color slightly). 3 Just before serving, gently fold in the diced avocado and chopped cilantro. Season the ceviche with salt. Transfer the ceviche to a serving bowl or individual glasses. Garnish with cilantro leaves.
Tips:
- Select the freshest tuna possible: The quality of your tuna will make a big difference in the final dish, so be sure to choose the freshest fish you can find. Look for tuna that is bright red in color and has a firm, springy texture.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the tuna: This will help to ensure that the fish is cut into even pieces and that the ceviche is not overly chewy.
- Marinate the tuna in a flavorful mixture: The marinade is what will give the ceviche its flavor, so be sure to use a mixture that you enjoy. The most common marinade ingredients include citrus juice, cilantro, onions, and peppers.
- Let the ceviche marinate for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the fish and create a delicious dish.
- Serve the ceviche chilled: Ceviche is best served cold, so be sure to chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Conclusion:
Tuna ceviche is a refreshing and flavorful dish that is perfect for a summer party or get-together. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. With its bright flavors and healthy ingredients, tuna ceviche is a dish that everyone will enjoy.
