FAQ:
Q: Can I use pre-cooked shrimp for this recipe?
A: Yes! If using pre-cooked shrimp, skip the citrus marinating step and just toss the chopped shrimp with the rest of the ingredients before serving.
Q: Is it safe to “cook” shrimp with citrus?
A: When done properly, the acid in citrus juice effectively denatures the proteins in shrimp, mimicking the cooking process. Just ensure the shrimp is fully opaque and firm before eating.
Q: What type of bread works best for the toasts?
A: A crusty baguette or rustic sourdough loaf is ideal. It holds up well under the juicy ceviche without getting soggy too quickly.
Q: Can I make this gluten-free?
A: Absolutely! Use gluten-free baguette slices or even cucumber rounds as a base for a low-carb, gluten-free version.
