  Yea, ceviche is cooked with acid rather than heat - you can also cook some foods with salt!

    You could cook using an exothermic reaction between ingredients, but I don’t think that’s what’s happening when making ceviche, so a ceviche is not cooked.

      The proteins are being chemically denatured.
