SCALLOP AND MANGO CEVICHE WITH THAI-LIME DIPPING SAUCE
This dipping sauce, fresh with herbs and tangy with lime, is Blue Ginger's, Ming Tsai's restaurant, most requested recipe. It's based on the traditional Thai dip called cha-gio, which gets its flavor from fish sauce. That salty ingredient is nicely balanced with lime juice. The herbs darken as the sauce ages; this isn't a taste problem (quite the opposite, as the flavor deepends over time) but the sauce will lose it looks. If this bothers you make and store the sauce "base" only, then chop & add the herbs an hour before serving it.Ceviche is food "cooked" without heat. As with all ceviches, freshness is key. Make sure your scallops are pristine enough to eat raw. This technique uses citric acid or vinegar to firm and therefore"cooked". Here, mango adds its exotic sweetness to scallops, which cook in the flavorful dipping sauce. Ming Tsai - ming.com - Episode 105, Tags: sauce, appetizer, scallops or mangoes. ;)
