Meat and Fish Main Courses

The flavors are highly dependent on the specific meat or fish dish and the season. Generally, expect a balance of savory, umami, and sometimes sweet or spicy notes.

Meat dishes often feature rich, savory flavors derived from the meat itself, enhanced by herbs, spices, sauces, and cooking methods like grilling, roasting, or braising. Fish dishes typically have a lighter, more delicate flavor profile, complemented by citrus, herbs, and sometimes creamy sauces. Seasonal variations mean utilizing ingredients at their peak flavor, such as fresh herbs in the spring, hearty root vegetables in the fall, and ripe tomatoes in the summer.
