Today I celebrate
bouillabaisse! A fish stew from Marseille. The broth made of leeks, onions,
tomatoes, celery, and potatoes.
I serve it with rouille – a
mayonnaise of olive oil, garlic, saffron from India, and cayenne pepper from
Asia.
I dip grilled slices of
thick, hearty bread into the rich sauce full of the flavors of the world that
make the tongue dance, the belly sing, and the heart purr like a tiger.
No pasty white bread without
flavor, nutrition or fiber.
Marseille is where they sing
the song that calls the community to rise up and resist the bullies.
