Ceviche is a traditional dish year-round in Chile and Peru. I like serving it with toast. Razor Clam Ceviche is less popular than fish-based but very tasty and always refreshing.
I had a bit left over for the next day in a salad with baby greens, which was delicious! You can add corn, mango, peppers, orange, or avocado. I love the ceviche with fruit, but one of the guests is allergic to raw things, and I do not want to risk it.
