The flavors of green Aquitaine

The southern region of France, where Aquitaine is located, is a very sunny area, which is favorable for the cultivation of vegetables and fruit in the Mediterranean. In addition, the area around Bordeaux (the capital of Aquitaine) is a typical wine area, famous for the best types of wine . It all influences the local cuisine. Aquitaine is a region dominated by fresh fish and seafood . While relaxing there, it is worth trying brandade (puree of heavily salted cod with milk and olive oil) and salt à la dieppoise (salt in wine with seafood). A dish known only in this area is lamproie à la bordelaise, or lamprey in vegetables . The Aquitaine cuisine also includes delicacies for meat lovers. It is worth trying, for example, entrecote bordelaise, i.e. Bordeaux entrecote with a sauce based on red wine, butter and shallots. The region's specialty is escalopes de veau aux truffes ( veal schnitzels with truffles ).

Italy, Croatia, Spain ... are the countries I would like to come back to every summer. I like to discover new places, whether it is a bustling capital city or a quiet town on a mountain slope.
