About Ceviche de Pescado
Christa Jimenez’s Costa Rican ceviche brings small pieces of raw sea bass together with lime juice, red onion, red bell pepper and cilantro. Fresh ginger adds another aromatic note to the citrus marinade.
The fish and finely chopped vegetables share a bright, sharp dressing, with salt rounding out the seasoning. The Costa Rican limón criollo gives this version its preferred citrus flavour.
The ceviche is served cold with tortilla chips and beer. Extra lime, ketchup and mayonnaise can accompany it, with avocado or Salsa Lizano offered as additions.
