Seafood Ceviche

Cultural Context

Ceviche is a beloved dish originating from the coastal regions of Latin America, particularly Mexico. Traditionally made with fresh seafood, it is marinated in citrus juices, which 'cook' the fish while infusing it with vibrant flavors. Ceviche is often enjoyed as a refreshing appetizer during hot summer months and is a staple at beachside restaurants. Today, variations abound, with different regions adding their unique ingredients, making ceviche a global favorite.
