Fresh salmon makes this ceviche a winner

Fresh salmon, lime juice and spices make up this easy ceviche dinner. It’s best to partially freeze the salmon for about 15 minutes before cutting it up for the ceviche. Also, rinse your knife in cold water between each cut of the salmon. These help you cut the salmon into neat cubes.

Be sure your salmon is fresh. Tell your fish server you need it to make ceviche so they can show you the best salmon on display.
