I brought some ceviche I made last night for lunch today. As I plated my colorful combo of citrus marinated seafood and chopped vegetables, a coworker walked into the break room and said, "I'm interested in what white girl ceviche tastes like. You make it different, right?"
To which I replied, "I didn't know there was right or wrong way to make ceviche."
To the best of my knowledge, there are many highly acclaimed chefs that create dishes with influences from different ethnic backgrounds than their own. Do you believe ethnic background plays a role in making a meal taste more authentic or does it really not matter?
