• In a large, non-reactive bowl , whisk together the fish stock, onion, garlic, celery, and ginger. Keep in the refrigerator for at least two hours to allow flavors to mingle before using.
• Gather the ingredients.
• Add the potatoes, water, and 2 teaspoons of salt to a medium pot. Bring to a boil over high heat. Lower heat to medium and cook until the sweet potato is tender, about 5 minutes.
• Drain and cool to room temperature.
• Add the onion, cucumber, cilantro, and lime juice to the Leche de Tigre and stir to combine. Add the scallops and gently fold into the marinade so all of the pieces are coated. Cover and refrigerate to marinate, about 5 minutes.

SNAPPY SCALLOP CEVICHE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Wash sweet potatoes and place in a deep saucepan with cold water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until tender. Remove from heat, drain and allow to cool enough to handle. Peel off the skin, slice into 1/2 inch pieces, and set aside.
• Place the bay scallops in a medium bowl and toss gently with the lime juice. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour.
• Place the coconut on a rimmed baking sheet and toast until golden brown, about 5 minutes, stirring every few minutes so the coconut toasts evenly. Set aside.
• Drain the scallops and transfer to a clean bowl. Add the onions, jalapenos, raisins, toasted coconut, coconut milk, chopped cilantro, oregano, and salt and pepper, to taste. Mix well and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 3 hours. Sprinkle with cilantro leaves and the reserved toasted coconut and serve with Canchita on the side.
• Canchita, the Un-popped Popcorn of Peru:
• Heat the canola or vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Add the chulpe corn, cover the pot and reduce the heat to medium. Once you hear the kernels pop (like popcorn), shake the pot vigorously to prevent the kernels on the bottom from burning. Once the popping slows, after about 8 to 10 minutes, drain the canchita in a strainer and rub with a paper towel to remove excess oil. Season with salt while the corn is still warm and serve with Scallop Ceviche.

Whisk together the Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, tomato paste, cayenne pepper, cumin, chili powder, and salt in a small bowl. Cover, and refrigerate 30 minutes.
• After 30 minutes, gently stir half of the tomato paste mixture into the seafood mixture. Cover the remaining tomato paste mixture and the seafood mixture. Return both to the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• After another 30 minutes, gently stir the remaining tomato paste mixture into the ceviche, cover, and refrigerate another 30 minutes.
• Gently stir the cilantro and diced avocado into the ceviche before serving.

SHRIMP AND SCALLOP CEVICHE

Steps:

• Toast the saffron, stirring over low heat, in a dry skillet until fragrant, then stir in the clam juice. Simmer until reduced to 1/2 cup, 5 to 6 minutes. Set saffron broth aside to cool. Whisk together the aj‭ amarillo, saffron broth, orange juice, and lime juice in a large bowl. Stir in diced and chopped vegetables and herbs.
• Now it's time to poach the seafood. Have the bowls of ice water ready. Cut the shrimp in half lengthwise. Remove any tough muscles from the sides of the scallops. Poach shrimp in 4 quarts simmering salted water, stirring occasionally until just cooked through, 40 seconds. Scoop out shrimp with a slotted spoon and add to one bowl of ice water. Return water to a simmer and poach scallops the same way, transferring them to the second bowl of ice water and discarding the cooking water. Drain the seafood well and toss it in the saffron broth mixture. Season with salt and your favorite hot pepper sauce to taste. (We used a fruity habanero chile sauce.) Chill the ceviche, covered, 1 hour and serve garnished with sliced jalapeños and a sprig of cilantro.
