Ceviche is a dish that originated in Latin America and is typically made with raw seafood that is marinated in citrus juices and spices. The acid in the juice 'cooks' the seafood by denaturing the proteins, resulting in a firm and opaque flesh with a tangy and flavorful taste.

It is a refreshing and healthy dish that can be served as an appetizer or a light meal, perfect for warm weather or summer BBQs.
