About Brandade

Brandade is a creamy and flavorful dish originating from French cuisine, particularly popular in regions like Provence and Languedoc. Traditionally made with salt cod, olive oil, garlic, and milk or cream, this dish is pureed into a smooth spread often enjoyed with bread or crackers. Rich in protein and omega-3 fatty acids from the cod, Brandade provides heart-healthy benefits. Olive oil contributes monounsaturated fats, known for supporting cardiovascular health. However, its nutritional profile can be high in sodium due to the salt cod, and the addition of cream introduces saturated fats, making moderation key. Variations can include potatoes for added fiber or dairy-free alternatives to reduce saturated fat content. A classic of Mediterranean cooking, Brandade combines bold flavors with a blend of nutrients, offering a delightful balance of indulgence and wholesome goodness when enjoyed thoughtfully.
