 | | Main courses tend to be plainer than in Normandy, for example, with fresh local fish being prepared with relatively simple sauces. |
 | | Skate served with capers, or salmon baked with a mustard or cheese sauce, are typical dishes, while even the cotriade, a stew containing such fish as sole, turbot or bass, as well as shellfish, is distinctly less rich than its Mediterranean equivalent, the bouillabaisse. |
 | | Brittany is also better than much of France in maintaining its respect for fresh green vegetables, thanks to the extensive local production of peas, cauliflowers, artichokes and the like. |
