Making ceviche or sushi officially not cooking confirmed - how dare those posers call themselves sushi chefs.
gotta cook the rice for sushi. checkmate.
Sashimi: do I not even exist, bro?
Slap a whole fish down in front of you.
You: "Not cooked"
slice fillet of fish off and present it.
You: "Not cooked"
slice fillet into small bite size pieces and squirt some neon green horseradish next to it
You: "Dis is cooked!"
?
Yea, it looks fucking delicious. Thank you for cooking me a fine meal!
Ha, you actually believe in Sashimi? Crazy.
What if I want my raw spam musubi extra crunchy?
Then you should opt the spam out for soused harring.
I think of a chef as a "preparer of food" not necessarily "food cooker"
So sushi chef is still accurate to their opinion, disclaimer I agree with them so I could always be rationalizing it.
chef is french for chief. they are the head of the kitchen.
They still have to cook the rice.
Some of the constituent ingredients have to be cooked, but ceviches and sushi rolls aren't cooked any more than salads or burritos. They're assembled or prepared.
You're ignoring the chemical process in ceviche.
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.
By heat?
Ceviche is said to be "cooked" with acid, even if that's not the most accurate term. And most forms of sushi are made with cooked rice, at minimum, and not uncommonly with other cooked ingredients. So those things kind of muddy the waters for your point. But a clearer example may be something like beef tartare, a garden salad with a vinegarette, or sashimi. Those things are "prepared", not cooked, because no cooking is involved in their making. Cooking is specifically the preparation of food utilizing heat. Chefs prepare plenty of dishes that do not involve the act of cooking.
Just because it's preparing food and not cooking doesn't mean that it is lesser.
The acid from the lime is doing the cooking in ceviche.
I agree - and it specifically isn't doing so through an application of heat.
