Ceviche is the typical Peruvian dish, which consists of raw fish or seafood marinated in lemon juice, garlic, onion, cilantro and chili peppers. It is usually accompanied with sweet potato, corn and lettuce.The history of ceviche dates back to pre-Columbian times, when ancient Peruvians consumed raw fish with salt and chili. With the arrival of the Spanish, lemon was introduced, which gave it an acidic touch and helped cook the fish. From this marinade, the milky juice (tiger's milk) released by the fish was obtained. Later, accessories such as sweet potato, onion, corn, lettuce and chopped parsley, yuyo or seaweed were added to the dish, with which the ceviche adopted an identity that distinguishes it as an authentically Peruvian stew.Ceviche is the national dish of Peru and was named Cultural Heritage of the Republic of Peru in 2004. It is one of the most representative expressions of Peruvian gastronomy, which reflects the cultural and natural diversity of this country. Ceviche has many variants depending on the region, the type of fish, the ingredients and each person's taste. It is a delicious and refreshing dish that can be enjoyed at any time of the year.
