Peruvian Salmon Ceviche

"This ceviche recipe is from my husband's family from Peru. The ceviche is made with salmon, shrimp, and of course, lots of lime juice. You can substitute other fish, like tilapia, as well. Use fewer chile peppers (or remove the seeds) if you don't like it too spicy. In Peru, it is generally eaten with sweet potatoes."

Ingredients :

3 pounds salmon fillets, cubed
4 cups uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 quarts water, divided
1/2 cup sea salt, divided

1 stalk celery, chopped
1 (4 inch) piece fresh ginger root, peeled and chopped
8 cloves garlic
8 dried red chile peppers
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
6 lettuce leaves
6 fresh lime wedges
