Peru's Health Ministry edited a booklet and a video showing the standard procedures recommended for a safe preparation of Peruvian flagship dish, the popular "cebiche," (raw fish fillets marinated in lime juice), with the aim to guarantee its safety for human consumption.

He reminded that cebiche, due to his composition with raw ingredients, is often connected with poisoning and food intoxication episodes.

The Viceminister of Health, Melitón Arce Rodríguez, explained that good practices of manipulation and manufacture to follow are described in both educational materials, to prepare this dish and avoiding any possible illnesses. DIGESA will deliver this booklet and the video to the most important health centers and restaurants in Lima.
