Tips

Please feel free to use varieties other than the mayonnaise, salt, or cilantro listed. These are what we prefer.

The food processor is by far the quickest way to make this recipe, but if you don’t have one, you can use a blender too. Just add the wet ingredients first, then the fish, and then the remaining ingredients. Remember to scrape down the sides often.
