THEY SAY FISH IS BRAIN FOOD

Given what we've seen so far this summer, looks like the guys that move our markets are in dire need of it.

I like ceviche... it doesn’t use oil or nattie gas or coal. Ed Begley Jr. would approve… like I need a nod from that eco-geek in a bike helmet.

Ceviche (To let sit)

2 lbs of firm, fresh red snapper fillets, cut into 1/2 inch pieces, completely deboned
1/2 cup of fresh squeezed lime juice
1/2 cup of fresh squeezed lemon juice
1/2 purple onion, finely diced
1 cup of fresh peeled, seeded, and chopped tomatoes
2 teaspoons of salt
Dash of Tabasco or a few grains of cayenne pepper
Cilantro

In a Pyrex or ceramic dish, place the fish, onion, tomatoes, salt, Tabasco.
Cover with lime and lemon juice…
Let sit covered in the refrigerator for an hour, stir, making sure more of the fish gets exposed to the acidic lime and lemon juices.
Let sit for several hours, giving time for the flavors to blend.

Serve with a white burgundy and tossed salad… crusty bread, and gratitude.
