Salmon Ceviche is a seafood dish that begins raw, but cooks in citrus juice as it sits. The juices and flavors blend with the fish and the rest of the ingredients to result in a delicious, refreshing appetizer.
Ceviche.
I just discovered ceviche recently, a popular South American dish. It’s raw fish marinated in acidic fruit (along with other flavorful ingredients). The acid basically “cooks” the fish but doesn’t really change the raw natural flavor. It’s pronounced “seh-vee-chey”.
Very ethnic and interesting sounding, right? They also say it’s a great cure for hangovers. There you go, a great excuse to try it. Now that I have your attention, please read on.
It’s ah-mazing. If you are a sushi lover, or even a fish lover, you will definitely like this. If you aren’t, won’t you please stick around and just check it out?
You never know…it may surprise you.
Isn’t it beautiful?
How Do You Eat Salmon Ceviche?
- Scoop it up with pita chips, like I do. Shamelessly.
- Add it to a salad.
- Roll it up in a soft pita or tortilla.
- Add a scoop on top of a just-grilled steak.
- Add a scoop on top of grilled fish.
I just grabbed a bag of pita chips and scooped it up.
Such a fantastic appetizer/side/snack. Oh, and apparently hangover cure according to Google….but I haven’t tried that out.
Don’t be scared – try it. Here is a video that shows you how to cut a mango into cubes –
