Green Ceviche: A Dish that Captivates the Senses

As part of the 3rd Edition of Tribute to Great Talents of Mexican Cuisine, Aguilera presents a unique creation: Green Ceviche. This dish, made with fresh catch of the day, is a true culinary masterpiece. The ceviche rests on a bed of green sauce, whose flavor and freshness enhance the essence of the ingredients. The avocado puree base provides a smooth and creamy texture, while the onion and cilantro add a touch of freshness and vitality to the ensemble. Olive oil completes the composition with its characteristic flavor, giving the ceviche an unparalleled balance of flavors.

Ernesto Aguilera’s Green Ceviche finds its ideal companion in Été Sauvignon Blanc, a white wine from Languedoc, France. With its medium body and golden hues, this wine is known for being expressive on the nose, with notes of citrus and lychee. On the palate, flavors of grapefruit, apple, and yellow lemon unfold, with a long and satisfying finish. This Sauvignon Blanc enhances the freshness and complexity of the Green Ceviche, turning each bite into a unique experience.

Ernesto Aguilera’s Green Ceviche is a tribute to freshness, tradition, and culinary ingenuity, where the evening of November 3rd in Puerto Vallarta and Coapa marked a culinary milestone in the Tribute to Great Talents of Mexican Cuisine with resounding success. The essence of Mexican tradition was present with a perfect combination of authentic flavors, exceptional pairings, and an atmosphere full of joy.
