Pairing Ceviche correctly — a note on chicha morada purple corn drink
Most people overlook how much the right drink changes Ceviche. I ordered it with chicha morada purple corn drink and the subtly sweet with chilli heat elements of the dish sharpened considerably against the pairing. quinoa in particular became more prominent in a good way.
Peruvian cuisine blends indigenous Andean traditions with Japanese, Chinese, African, and Spanish influences. The a Novoandino contemporary Peruvian restaurant is where you learn these pairings — they evolved together. If you've been having Ceviche with the wrong drink, try it correctly once. It's a genuinely different experience. The restaurant deserves credit for getting this right.
