Escovitch, salad, fish dish, spanish ,& creole carib
basic carib fish salad w spices, may be linked to hebrew name Scovitch, but in Spanish it becomes Escovitch. Hebrew settlers in Carib areas liked spiced fish dishes, as did the native people. Not necessarily a well-known Jewish food specialty & not a ritual type dish. Evolved in situ, perhaps,over the years in Carib areas. Accepted by the locals. Also, brought to mainland America in US south. In Spanish, usually "pescada escovitch." Maybe means, spiced fish, in the Scovitch style.
