Peru is home to so many dishes that combine cooking methods and flavor profiles of other cultures with local ingredients. Take, for example, ceviche, Peru's beloved raw fish dish cooked in citrus, which became what it is today with the introduction of Japanese styles of sashimi by the Nikkei (Japanese immigrants), per National Geographic. Or think about the fiery, soy sauce beef stir fry, Lomo Saltado, which combined Chinese cooking with Peruvian flavors, via New Worlder.
