Satisfying on a Hot Night
This refreshing summer ceviche pairs tuna and sweet, tart cherries with the salty-sour flavors of yuzu, soy sauce and lime juice. Ceviche is one of the world’s most genius food genres, and it gives the cook plenty of leeway to experiment with his food. Serve on its own or with tortilla chips.
