Cebiche : The taste of Peru - Mariano Valderrama - Ed. USMP

The author, Mariano Valderrama, has traveled a large part of the Peruvian coast tasting the particularities of each dish in order to document all the varieties of Ceviche. Thus, he has traveled places like Puerto Pizarro, Zorritos, Yacila, Paita, Sechura and many more, not only in order to accumulate recipes, but also to investigate and review testimonies from ancient chroniclers and archaeologists who have dealt with the subject.

.

Considered the most universal dish of Peruvian national cuisine, Cebiche has managed to reinvent itself in the manner of each town, but at the same time it has transcended borders, establishing itself more intensely in Mexico, Costa Rica and Ecuador. Valderrama's contribution goes, however, beyond the influence of our Cebiche: he identifies dishes of a similar cut in the world, such as the Tahitian poisson cru or the Fiji cebiche.

Cebiche : The taste of Peru, in its Spanish edition, won third place in the category of books on specialized food during the XIV edition of the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards.
