Flemish creamy stew of chicken or fish poached in a vegetable-laden broth thickened with cream and egg yolks. Originally a Ghent classic, adopted in Antwerp.
Waterzooi originated in medieval Ghent as a fish stew using Schelde and Leie river catch. The chicken version became dominant in the 20th century. The dish reaches Antwerp through Flemish brasserie traditions. Antwerp brasseries serve the chicken version in winter; the fish version turns up on fine-dining tasting menus.
