Walleye Ceviche
This summer the kids and I spent nine days road tripping and fishing around Ontario, Canada. One of our stops was Prince Edward County where we fished with Bay of Quinte guide Scott Walcott, for walleye.
Our fishing trip was made extra special with a visit to local Picton restaurant The Marans where chef Guerin showed us how to make ceviche with our walleye. In addition to the satisfaction of eating something we personally just caught, we got to eat THE BEST ceviche. I have eaten ceviche all around the world, and I can confidently say this was my most favourite of all time.
Although Ceviche sounds super fancy, it’s actually simple to make. The hardest part is catching that fresh fish. Once you get your hands on a fresh filet, the rest is easy. Here is the walleye ceviche Yale and I made back in the sweltering heat in August. If you have the right, local, fresh ingredients, you cannot go wrong with this one -
