Escabeche is the name for a number of dishes in Mediterranean and Latin American cuisines which can refer to a dish of either poached or fried fish (''escabeche'' of chicken, rabbit or pork is common in Spain) marinated in an acidic mixture before serving, the marinade, or a marinated salad of various vegetables. The dish is common in Spain and the Spanish-speaking world. It is well represented in Portugal, and France. Influences of the dish appear as far as Asia-Pacific with adjustments to local food staples. It is usually served cold after marinating in a refrigerator overnight or longer. The acid in the marinade is usually vinegar, but can also include citrus juice. ''Escabeche'' is a popular presentation of canned or potted preserved fish, such as mackerel, tuna, bonito or sardines. In the New World, versions of the basic marinade are often used with foods other than fish and meats, for example cassava or green bananas with chicken gizzards (Puerto Rico), jalapeño peppers (Mexico), etc. The origin of the word ''escabeche'' is Persian, and was brought to Spain by the Arabs during the Moorish conquests. The word derives from ''al-sikbaj'', the name of a popular meat dish cooked in a sweet and sour sauce, usually vinegar and honey or date molasses. The dish is also known as ''escoveitch'' or ''escoveech'' fish in Jamaica, and is marinated in a sauce of vinegar, onions, chayote, carrots and scotch bonnet peppers overnight, since it is a traditional breakfast dish. And as ''escabecio, scapece'' or ''savoro'' in Italy, ''savoro'' in Greece (especially Ionian islands) and ''scabetche'' in North Africa. The dish is not to be confused with an unrelated soup made from chicken, onion, and spices and served in Belize, sometimes referred to as Belizean ''escabeche''. However, like the other ''escabeches'', Belizean ''escabeche'' is based upon an acidic marinade—in this instance, onions marinated in vinegar. ==See also== *''Ceviche'', raw, rather than cooked, fish in an acidic marinade *''Kelaguen'' *''Nanbanzuke'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Escabeche」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
