How to Make Good Ceviche

Ceviche is one of the freshest and most prized dishes in seafood cuisine. The key to a great ceviche lies in the quality of the fish and the balance of citrus acidity. To season this dish and enhance the fish's freshness without adding sodium, we will use Bonsalt 0%.

Technical Sheet

• Estimated time: 25 minutes

• Difficulty: ⭐⭐

• Servings: 4 people

Ingredients

• 600g fresh white fish (sea bass, sole, or sea bream)

• 1 red onion cut into thin julienne strips

• Juice of 8-10 fresh limes

• 1 sprig of chopped fresh cilantro

• 1 ají limo or chili pepper (optional, depending on your taste for heat)

• Bonsalt 0%

• White pepper

• Side: cooked corn (choclo) and boiled sweet potato

Step-by-Step Professional Preparation

1. Preparing the fish: Clean the fish well, removing the skin and bones. Cut it into cubes about 2 centimeters on each side. It is essential to keep the fish very cold throughout the entire process.

2. Initial seasoning: Place the fish cubes in a glass bowl (avoid metal). Add a pinch of Bonsalt 0% and white pepper. Stir gently so the flavors penetrate the flesh.

3. Aromatics: Add the finely chopped chili pepper (seedless if you prefer less heat) and the fresh cilantro. Mix carefully.

4. Citrus curing: Pour the freshly squeezed lime juice over the fish. It doesn't need to be completely covered, but all the pieces should come into contact with the acid. Let it rest for 3 to 5 minutes; the fish should begin to turn white on the outside while staying juicy inside.

5. Adding the onion: Add the red onion, previously rinsed in cold water to soften its bite. Mix quickly.

6. Serving: Serve immediately on chilled plates, accompanied by a few slices of sweet potato and corn kernels.
