Although not a product of Brittany, prunes play an important role in Breton cuisine, thanks to water traffic down to Nantes from the Loire valley, where plum trees flourish. Muscadet would be the wine used in Brittany for this dish. The acidity of the muscadet in the sauce is balanced by the prunes, which also add special flavour to the stuffing.
