From the Kitchen: Tarte au Sucre (Brown Sugar Pie)

Another traditional Quebec recipe, tarte au sucre is often reserved for special occasions, as it is rich in spite of it’s simplicity.
This version might make enough filling for two pies, actually, depending on the size pie pan you use. Some people have made it with a tart pan rather than the traditional pie pan, [...]

From the Kitchen: Tourtière! (Meat Pie)

Last year, in a fit of homesickness, I decided it was about time we have a Christmas meal that was more French Canadian. My eldest children are Québecoises, after all, and hadn’t enjoyed a Québec style Christmas in ten years. So I looked up recipes for things like Tourtière and creton (something similar [...]

From the Kitchen: Sourdough Starter

I first made sourdough starter back in 2000. I remember because that was the year right after we got married, and we nursed that baby for so long, my husband used to joke: “If ever it dies, we’ll know we’re in trouble too!” It became a running joke between us.
This is the recipe [...]

From the Kitchen: Sourdough Bread

This is my virtually fool proof sourdough bread recipe. Do try to make it in a warm environment, as the bread will rise better. Use rye flour for a denser bread with a nutty flavor. In fact, if your sourdough is well established, don’t be afraid to play around a bit with [...]

From the Kitchen: Deboned Smoked Chicken

Our very first Thanksgiving together, my husband and I established a tradition of making our meals non-traditional. That is to say, although we might make something that looks traditional, preparation and ingredients wouldn’t be.
Over the years we’ve also gone outside the American tradition, making an Italian meal, or improvising something more Middle-Eastern, and so [...]
