Marseille Bouillabaisse

A Provençal fish stew with rockfish, tomato, fennel, saffron and potatoes; the fish is served separately from the broth.

This version follows the Marseille style: it combines at least four species of rockfish and serves the fish and broth separately. Species depend on the catch available; choose very fresh fish and order their cooking according to how firm their flesh is.
