Ceviche
According to some historic sources from Peru, ceviche would have originated among the Moche coastal civilization that began to flourish in the area of current-day northern Peru nearly 2000 years ago. The dish is typically made from fresh raw fish cured in citrus juices, such as lemon or lime, and spiced with ajà or chili peppers. Additional seasonings, such as chopped onions, salt, and cilantro, may also be added
