Good to Know STORY
Ceviche is a traditional coastal Peruvian dish that has gained popularity in the U.S. The halibut is cured (cooked) with citric acid, which gives it a very refreshing, vibrant, slightly acidic flavor. This recipe is a super fresh summertime dish to enjoy with friends out on the patio.
