Tiradito de Mero

Cultural Context

Tiradito de Mero hails from the coastal regions of Peru, where fresh fish is a staple. Unlike ceviche, which is typically cubed and marinated, tiradito features thinly sliced fish drizzled with lime juice and a spicy sauce, reflecting the influence of Japanese sashimi. It is often served during festive occasions and is a symbol of Peru’s rich culinary heritage, celebrated for its vibrant flavors and fresh ingredients.
