Here is a history lesson for ya. Escabeche as a word derives from Al Sikbaj, a medieval Arab dish made by cooking meat in vinegar. The dish was taken to Spain by the Arabs during their invasions, and the word change from al sikbaj to escabeche. Now, another word that derives from the same is aspic, which when the dish cools down, gellification takes place. Escabeche or sikbaj are also thought to be the origin of the word ceviche. Ceviche uses an acid to "cook" fish in a way similar to using acidic vinegar. That is just one hypothsis though. I'll try to recreate the original al sikbaj recipe someday to show you the similarities :) What an amazing fish! Here is a history lesson for ya.
