History and origins of Kig ha Farz

Kig Ha Farz, which literally means “Meat and Stuffing”, is a regional speciality from the Pays de Léon in Brittany, a historic region to the west of Morlaix and north of Brest. A kind of Breton pot-au-feu, this dish is distinguished by the use of a paste made from buckwheat flour.
Buckwheat, which originated in Asia, quickly made its way to the poor lands of Brittany in the 15th century, and the dish quickly became popular, with ingredients including beef or pork and vegetables such as carrots, cabbage or leeks.
