1-Getting started with aguachile involves a few simple steps that blend everything into a refreshing dish. Begin by gathering all your ingredients to keep the process smooth and efficient. Blending the core components creates a flavorful base that’s key to the recipe’s success.

2-First, blend all the aguachile ingredients until smooth, then strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed before refrigerating for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld. This cooling period is crucial for achieving that crisp, fresh taste that defines the dish.

3-Once chilled, serve by placing 4 to 5 ounces of the aguachile liquid into ice-cold shallow bowls or deep plates. Arrange the fish over the liquid and sprinkle with fennel seeds and sea salt. Finish by garnishing with carrot discs, cucumber rings, shallot rings, herbs, and edible flowers, then enjoy it right away.
