tiradito is a simpler, "cleaner" version.

the trick is not to overcook the thing. 20 minutes to 2 hours is the right time.

though i once worked in a fucked up american restaurant where they kept the "cebiche" in the refrigerator for a week. fortunately i was fired. we would never do such crimes back home. (the idiot cook actually cooked the pesto as well, fucking up the flavor-- what a dunce)
