Ceviche is a very old dish, dating back at least 2 thousand years. It was first prepared in Peru. The ceviche recipe is based on fresh fish marinated in citrus juice. Various sources claim that ceviche was consumed along the entire Peruvian coast about 2 thousand years ago. The Incas made this dish with salt, hot pepper, sour orange, and onion. Today, like many popular dishes, ceviche has so many varieties that it’s hard to count.
