What is ceviche?
This Latin American dish is prepared by curing raw fish* in citrus juice, seasonings and aromatics. The acid in the juice alters the protein in fish in a process similar to cooking; the result is silky, slightly firm fish. This dish is prepared without heat, so always use the freshest fish possible.
