Poisson Marseillaise from a Provence Cooking Vacation

As the weather starts to cool down, warm up with a delightful fish dish from the kitchen of noted Chef Marc Heracle, who for many, many years taught our culinary travelers Provencal cuisine from his cooking atelier in Aix. Chef Marc has since retired, but we have many other wonderful chefs who have taken up the task of leading our Provence cooking vacations and culinary tours. You can, for instance, cook with Chef Gilles in Aix, or Chef Jean-Marc in Maubec – or take a multi-day cooking vacation in Provence with Chef Mark!
Chef Marc’s poisson Marseillaise embodies much of what the Provencal cuisine is about, and this particular recipes provides a twist on the traditional while still using seasonal ingredients.
