Brandade is an emulsion of salt cod, olive oil, and usually potatoes. It is eaten in the winter with bread or potatoes. In French it is sometimes called brandade de morue and in Spanish it can be called brandada de bacalao (‘morue’ and ‘bacalao’ meaning salt cod). Brandade is a specialty of the Roussillon, Languedoc and Provence regions of Occitanie (in present-day France); and Catalonia, Balearic Islands and Valencia in Eastern Spain.

Like most flatfish, lemon sole (Microstomus kitt) has a rather unusual look: a right-eyed fish with a small head and mouth, and smooth, slimy skin with a pearlescent shine. They are usually shades of reddish brown, with a tinge of pink and orange, pink and green flecks and a white underside. The lemon sole has an orange patch behind its pectoral fin.
The fish is widely found throughout the British Isles and northern Europe, feeding on marine worms, prawns, crabs and shellfish. This demersal species prefers a mixed seabed, with small stones and sand. They tend to keep to coastal areas and live at depths of 20-220m. Lemon sole travel to shallower waters to spawn during spring and migrate further out as they mature. The larvae start out similar to those of round fish, but eventually develop their flatfish traits.
The breeding season is from April to August and fully grown lemon sole, at four to five years, reach up to a maximum of 60cm in length.

Octopus is a soft-bodies mollusk or cephalopod with eight limbs. Even though the look of octopus is somewhat bizzare, it’s one of my favorite seafood.

Beautifully firm and it gets so nicely golden when you sear it.” Although he and co-chef Cal Elliott don’t usually make a lot of rich sauces, they adore this tangy lemon-butter sauce with fish: “The lemon brightens up the halibut”.
