Hey, are aguachiles kinda like ceviche or what?

They seem similar, but I can't quite put my finger on the difference. Are they made with the same ingredients? Is it all about the preparation method? Let's compare notes and settle this culinary debate!

You're onto something! The ingredients might be similar, but how they're prepared makes all the difference. It’s like using the same paint colors but creating two different pictures. So, it’s not just what’s in the dish, but how it’s cooked that sets them apart.

Aguachiles and ceviche are similar in that they both use raw seafood marinated in citrus, but aguachiles typically have a spicier flavor and often include additional ingredients like chili peppers and cilantro.

Yep, aguachiles are similar to ceviche! They use a spicy, lime-based marinade and are often a bit more intense in flavor. So refreshing and zesty!
