Keepin’ cool on a cloud of blue…
*****
Merci to all who are so lively with their comments and visits and we truly appreciate that, especially when mama puts in her FYIs and prays they do not offend anyone…
But seriously, folks, mama cannot help herself. Our country was great and still can be, but oh, what a shock that most of the world now distrusts the USA and the idiot is putting his HORRIBLE face on the 1$ coin!!!!!
But there is great hope, thanks to the brave and wonderful people who are trying to get our country back from the depths to which it has fallen. Bravi!!! Magnifique! And merci again…
Have a perfect weekend that is coming up and keep cool…there is more lovely summer left to enjoy!
Scallop or shrimp ceviche for 4
Slice 10 scallops or shrimp horizontally into thin slices, shrimp only need to be in two pieces unless they are huge!
Place in a bowl with the juice of 4-5 limes or lemons, making sure everything is covered. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and let marinate for 2 hours. Drain and reserve the juice for other recipes with seafood.
Add;
1 small sweet onion, chopped fine
2 cloves of garlic, chopped fine
1 large tomato, chopped fine
1 small bunch of cilantro, chopped fine
Pinch of hot pepper or dash of sriracha
Toss all together with a generous splash of olive oil and serve cold as an appetizer.
Scallops ceviche
I sure will pass on that recipe, LOL! I only like a few varieties of fish but shellfish do not tempt me at all, (Yes,I have tried them in restaurants.) And raw ones…no thanks!! Maybe I would try this if I could use cooked salmon, or maybe cod or flounder?
I do think hubby might enjoy those, though. We differ as lot on our tastes, LOL!
Worth a try…we get such good scallops and I love ceviche. You can make it with sea bass, which is what most ceviche is made from and the citrus ‘cooks’ the fish. Has to be very fresh. But if you have flounder and cod, just broil and EAT!! We don’t get flounder, which I love.
Your mama has the best recipes, Loulou!
Well, she’s had a few years to make them happen, haha.
Another wondrous dish from your mama, Loulou!
Merci, Ms Militza…mama’s stepdaughter just landed in Kilimanjaro….mama is so envious.
Your recipes always sound so good.
Merci, Ms Messymimi…they do work…tried and true.
Yum, the food looks and sounds delicious! Tell your Mama to Rant On, we don’t mind one bit!
Well, merci for that. And if Trump is planning to invade the streets with his brown shirt army in November, we had all better be ready to say NO.
Thanks for the recipe. I don’t eat seafood, but my hubby loves it. xO
We know he will love this but do you not even eat shrimp? Tempura? Crunchy outside sweet inside? Maa could make you something you’d like, she is sure.
LOULOU IF i AM NOT MISTAKEN CANADA HAS A $1 COIN KNOWN AS A “LOONEY” APPARENTLY SO WILL THE u.s.
HAHAHA…that is appropriate but how did it even get this far??????????? Mama is beginning to feel that we are ALL out of our minds, herself included, not to have seen this madman coming…..
