For a while now, I’ve wanted to see if I could ever make a vodka ceviche, because it sounds like fun. I may not be able to consume copious amounts of alcohol, but that doesn’t stop me from cooking with it! Or in the case of a ceviche, not even cooking it!
Me being me, recipes are just guidelines. I take one look, then do whatever I feel like. Which can have disastrous consequences.
In any case, I tossed together some really random things and decided to go with gin cured salmon.
Salt, sugar, basil, pepper, gin, lemon juice and a tiny dash of ginger (just so I could write GINger).
This was me tossing everything into a container. I took no note of how much salt and sugar was in here, and I assumed I had to have enough liquid to cover my fillet. Perhaps I should have paid more attention to the recipe I consulted…
