Local speciality: Vendée mogette
Why not make a grillée de mogette - essentially a fancy version of beans on toast!
Boasting an Indication géographique protégée (IGP) since 2010, the mogette is a haricot bean from Vendée.
It is traditionally served with some local ham (jambon de Vendée), or served atop some grilled bread that has been rubbed with garlic.
