Ceviche: yummy favorite of Shoot the Moon
I’m a fan of ceviche. Its light, fresh and yummy!
When I was on a photographer retreat we had a chef come and do an interactive demonstration on Raw foods and she made an amazing coconut ceviche where the young coconut tool the place of the fish. I prefer the fish, and wanted to share my favorite recipe!
Preparation time: 15 minutes to prepare, 3-4 hours to let sit. Always use the freshest fish possible. Make the same day you purchase fresh fish.
