[edit] Chilean o Peruvian?

I have heard that Chileans claims that the ceviche originated i ntheir country. So I made some few changes on the article, to give it more neutrality, until somebody gives clear proofs.

Here's a source which clearly says its Peruvian. It IS NOT AND NEVER WILL BE CHILEAN. http://whatscookingamerica.net/History/CevicheNotes.htm --Marco524

[edit]

I made the mistake of reading this when there isn't any to be had. Now what do I do?

Someone with more time than I could take the information found here: http://whatscookingamerica.net/History/CevicheNotes.htm and culminate it into a history section for this article

Make some, the more simple varities are not difficult to make ceviche de langostinos(prawns) can be made well without access to peruvian fish. You must use real limes I cannot stress this enough. 24.69.70.218 21:33, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] It's spelled "ceviche"

  • Seviche is a variant spelling, and no resturant I've been to calls it that. Danny Lilithborne 23:39, 31 January 2006 (UTC)


[edit] What about Polynesia?

There is a strong belief on the 'net that ceviche originated in Polynesia (Google chviche originally polynesia). The present article should deal with this, either supporting or refuting it. Jedwards05 2006.06.05

If cebiche originated in Polynesia then Taco is not Mexican, Pizza is not an Italian invention, Hamburger is not a German invention, Sushi is not Japanese..etc

Cebiche is Peruvian, then spread to the rest of the world during Viceroyalty times...

^^Ummm hamburgers are not a German invention, despite the name.

I'm peruvian, I've changed "yoyu" to "yuyo". There's also a theory that cebiche comes from latin "cibum" does someone know about this more? - Micrurus


Ceviche is found in many incarnations in the United States, often made with local fish (I've had delicious Halibut ceviche in Alaska) or more traditional ingredients like scallop or shrimp, but never with hamburger meat like the article previously cited before I deleted the reference. Maybe the person who wrote that was confusing it with steak tartare. -Roxy
