Online cooking class: Saturday 26 April, 10.30am - Bouillabaisse de Morue - Cod Bouillabaisse legendary chef Michel Guérard
Michel Guérard is one of the foremost pioneers of nouvelle cuisine, known for his groundbreaking approach to French gastronomy that revolutionised traditional cooking methods. Renowned for his emphasis on lighter, healthier dishes without compromising on flavour or elegance, Guérard's work reshaped the culinary landscape. In 1977, he opened Les Prés d'Eugénie, his Michelin-starred restaurant in the town of Eugénie-les-Bains, where he became a champion of what he called "cooking for the senses"—focusing on the quality and freshness of ingredients while emphasising delicate textures and vibrant flavors. His philosophy of reducing rich, heavy elements in classic French cuisine while maintaining its complexity and finesse gave rise to a new wave of culinary thinking. Beyond his culinary innovations, Guérard also introduced a healthier version of haute cuisine, marrying gourmet cooking with nutrition. His contributions to modern French cuisine have earned him a lasting place in the history of fine dining, influencing chefs around the world and inspiring future generations to think creatively and healthfully about food.
Michel Guérard's Bouillabaisse de Morue (Cod Bouillabaisse) is a stunning reinterpretation of the classic Provençal fish stew, showcasing his signature style of lighter, more refined versions of traditional French dishes. The result is a harmonious blend of bold flavours and subtle nuances, reflecting Guérard’s mastery in creating sophisticated, healthy dishes that retain all the joy and comfort of classic French cuisine.
