Ceviche is a dish originated in South America (Peru) that is usually served as an appetizer. It’s usually made from raw fresh fish, shrimp, or other seafood that’s marinated in lime (and/or lemon) juice. The acidity in the citrus cures the fish causing it to become firm and opaque while absorbing flavor.
