Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Onions: In a saucepan, combine the sliced onions with just enough water to cover. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until softened (approximately 5-7 minutes). Drain, rinse thoroughly with cold water, and drain again. This helps to mellow their sharpness.

02

Step

Blanch and Purée the Tomato: Score the tomato with an 'X' on the blossom end. Immerse in the same saucepan used for the onions and cover with water. Simmer until the skin begins to peel away, about 5 minutes. Transfer to an ice bath to cool. Once cool enough to handle, peel off the skin and purée the tomato in a blender until smooth.

03

Step

Combine and Marinate: In a large glass bowl, whisk together the softened onions, lemon juice, and olive oil. Gently fold in the oysters (or your choice of seafood), puréed tomato, diced tomato, green onions, ketchup, and soy sauce. Season with parsley, garlic salt, sugar, and salt to taste.

04

Step

Chill and Serve: If using canned oysters, marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. If using raw seafood, marinate for a minimum of 2 hours, or until the seafood is opaque throughout. Serve chilled and enjoy!

For the best flavor, use freshly squeezed lemon juice. Bottled juice can have a slightly bitter taste.
Adjust the amount of ketchup and sugar to your preference. Some people prefer a tangier seviche, while others like a touch of sweetness.
If using raw seafood, ensure it is sushi-grade and sourced from a reputable supplier to minimize the risk of foodborne illness.
Seviche is best served cold. Prepare it ahead of time and allow it to chill thoroughly for maximum flavor.
