👨🍳 步骤
- 1
Prepare the aromatics: Thinly slice the red onion. Finely mince the ají limo (or habanero), removing seeds and veins if you prefer less heat. Chop the cilantro, including the tender stems.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 2
Combine ingredients in a blender: Add the freshly squeezed lime juice, fish trimmings, sliced red onion, minced ají limo, and chopped cilantro to a blender. If using, add a few ice cubes to help keep the mixture cold.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 3
Blend until smooth: Secure the lid and blend on high speed for about 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is well combined and has a slightly milky, opaque appearance. The fish trimmings should be broken down.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 4
Strain the mixture: Pour the blended liquid through a fine-mesh sieve set over a clean bowl. Use the back of a spoon to press down on the solids, extracting as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Season to taste: Stir in salt, starting with about 1/2 teaspoon. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. The leche de tigre should be bright, tangy, slightly spicy, and well-salted.
⏱️ 1 minute - 6
Chill and serve: For the best flavor and invigorating effect, chill the Leche de Tigre in the refrigerator for at least 5 minutes (or longer if time permits). Serve immediately in small shot glasses.
