Ahhh, how nice it would be o work where jedi works. To do vodka shots at work. :dance:
 
We used to close the day with a bottle of beer on Friday, but that was 15 years ago. :mope: The lawyers put a stop to that. 
 
 
Oh, and you killed it S-n-F. I've never had that before, but looks great.

Nice nice nice! I like my onion to marinate in the lime/marinade the longest so they get pickled, then I throw in throw in the other ingreds.

What kind of liquid/pasteurization juice mixture do you aim for? ...
 
Lime only? ... other citrus? ... alcohol? ...
 
I am about to order some groceries (it's raining like a mofo) and I want to make sure I don't miss one of the liquid ingredients ...
 
Thanks!

I attended a ceviche class taught by Jose del Castillo last summer in D.C. He is the guy in this video above at minute 1:16. I make my ceviche exactly the way he taught in the class, and it comes out perfect every time. Aji Limo, limes, red onion, fish, and salt are the only ingredients you need to make amazing ceviche.

Previously I had expiremented making a bunch of different leche de tigres from recipes of other Peruvian chefs and Peruvian friends. Ever since taking that class last year, I cut out all of the extra stuff, and make it exactly like Jose del Castillo. I do throw in some culantro(recao) when I make it, but other than that, I follow his recipe to a T.

I make leche de tigre sometimes while making ceviche, but I spike it with pisco, and put it in a glass to drink as a spicy/sour cocktail. I don't mix it with my ceviche.

Yeah, I got a little tomato for mine too ;)
 
I ordered a bunch of lime, a couple of lemons, a couple of navel oranges, some cilatro (fresh) and paste, purple onions, some bells, some poblanos, and I have the pepper pastes (as well as a pretty full cabinet of pepper powders) ...
