Ceviche is a popular Latin American dish made with raw fish or seafood marinated in citrus juices, typically lime or lemon juice. The acid in the citrus juice cooks the fish, turning it firm and opaque. The dish is often mixed with onions, chili peppers, tomatoes, and cilantro for added flavor. Ceviche is a refreshing and tangy dish that is perfect for hot summer days. It is commonly enjoyed as a starter or appetizer.
