Seafood Soup

Cultural Context

Originating from coastal regions of France, particularly Provence, Seafood Soup is a celebration of the ocean's bounty. Traditionally, it was a fisherman's dish, utilizing the catch of the day, and has become a staple in Mediterranean cuisine. Today, variations exist globally, adapting local seafood and spices, and it remains a favorite for gatherings and special occasions.
