Ceviche

[C-2]

Never seen this stuff....How does it compare to Tapatio? That is generally my go to hot sauce....

My horses chew the barn like beavers. So, I started using Tapatio on the wood. Bastards must have developed a taste for Tapatio as they started chewing like beavers again.

Then I switched to the Valentina...and so far, so good lol.

The remodeled Smart & Final stores carry the Valentina, along with a decent selection of other sauces.

Love this kind of food, but I'd need a Zantac in 2-3 hours.

The shrimp cocktail does not have any heat, the peppers are there mostly for texture/crunch.

But, a scoop on a cracker with a shot of Tapatio is pure heaven.

My Buddy Jesse's wife hands down makes the best with lime

They are hit and miss, the one we go to has a kick ass meat section, hands down better than Stater Bros. The other two SF's in our area suck.

Like sweet nectar... MMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmm good...


My workers in Guadalajara turned me on to this stuff but they dont get the HOT (black label)... I like it hot...

IMHO it has more flavors, garlic, thicker... not just spice but flava and depth...

I make a similar Mexican shrimp cocktail, but it's spendy to do so.

2-3 lbs shrimp
1 large can of baby clams
1-2 lbs of imitation crab meat
6 Avocados, diced
6 cucumbers, sliced then quarter diced
6 California green chilis, diced really small
6 Yellow chilis, diced really small
1 Bushel Cilantro
6 Tomatos, diced
Large Red Onion, chopped small
2lb Ketchup
Juice of 6 Lemons
Juice of 6 Limes
Salt/Pepper

Tapatio and Crackers!

Notes from over the years of making it:

Sear the Shrimp, don't use pre-cooked. If seared in butter, drain juice (butter fat will coagulate in the cocktail)
Wash clams really good
DO NOT add seeds from peppers, do not use Jalapeno's
Mix the veges as you add them
Fresh tomatoes only, not canned
Lemon/Lime juice in bottled form is fine <--- is key to getting that perfect tang
Red onion looks nice, sweet onions taste better
Add Avocados and Tomatoes at the end of prep, after seasoning to taste (so you don't bruise them up)

Let sit overnight for best results.
Cost is usually $80 or so.
DO NOT TAKE ANYWHERE EXCEPT TO FAMILY FUNCTIONS. Otherwise, there will be a party invite every week

Really? 2 pounds sounds like a shit-ton.....

Nah, that's simply the large size bottle of Ketchup. I once tried tomato sauce, but it wasn't as tasty.
