Bouillabaisse · Marseille
Bouillabaisse is a Provencal rock-fish stew of rascasse, galinette, conger and saint-pierre cooked in a saffron and fennel broth, served broth-first with croutons and rouille then the carved fish.
Marseille fishermen had cooked a leftover fish stew on the quays for centuries, but the codification into bouillabaisse-as-restaurant-dish came in the early 20th century. Le Miramar (1965) was a founding member of the Charte de la Bouillabaisse, and Chez Michel has cooked the same recipe at the Catalans beach since 1946. The dish always uses Mediterranean rock fish bought off the morning quay boats; rouille of garlic, saffron and olive oil binds it. The two-service ritual (broth then fish carved tableside) is the marker of a real Marseille bouillabaisse.
