*Ad in cooperation with Frische Paradies*.
In late September, I was on a gourmet trip to Brittany with Frische Paradies and Gourmet Connection. Allow me to take you today to the end of the world, for here earth ends and the endless sea begins. I will show you how diverse and fantastic Finstére in Bretagne is. Brittany in Breton “Breizh” is a perfect destination for nature lovers, foodies, connoisseurs and gourmets. The Bretons are people of coastal fishermen, and fishing nearby the coast is highly rated among them. Here you can find diverse landscapes, the best and most delicious seafood specialties. Fish and seafood from Bretagne are not to beat in taste, due to the strong streams they are constantly in motion, and this makes their meat much more aromatic.
Shellfish such as oysters, scallops, mussels, lobster, and ocean-fresh fish taste incredibly fresh and are of the highest quality. Treat yourself to a glass of sparkling cider, join me on our gourmet journey, and learn how the fish from the sea ends up on our plates. We start in Lesconil and visit the main ports in the Pays Bigouden. We then continue to Guilvenic and finally end the trip in Loctudy. These three ports are famous and the symbol of Breton fishing throughout the whole of France. I am quite charmed by the magic of Bretagne! At the end of the post, you will find my delicious recipe for monkfish cheeks in saffron sauce. Read More
