French fish soups

Bouillabaisses is the plural of bouillabaisse, a traditional Provençal fish stew originating from the port city of Marseille.

The dish combines various Mediterranean fish and shellfish simmered with tomatoes, saffron, garlic, and olive oil, typically served over bread or with rouille.
