tourtiere

Wed, 01 Dec 1999 20:03:00 -0500

This is a traditional dish for French Canadians and is pronounced "tort-ee-air". The true French Canadian meat pie has a lard-based pastry, but you can substitute a basic shortcrust if you prefer a lighter crust. If the potato is omitted, the filling will be less dense. Tourtière is traditionally served with pickles beets or other pickles and a salad. -- posted by Strawberry Girl

Traditional Tourtiere

Tue, 23 Nov 1999 05:46:00 -0500

Recipe for individual meat pies [tortieres], popular in Quebec in the Christmas season. The Tourtiere is usually made like a casserole or pie. I don't see any reason why you couldn't make them into "individual" pies, but adjustments would have to be made in the cooking times. -- posted by Frank Butcher

Tourtiere Du Lac St-Jean

Thu, 23 Aug 2001 14:21:43 -0400

A French Canadian dish that is served everywhere in the Northern Quebec region. It is tasty and filling. It takes a long time to cook and peeling and cubing all the potatoes may be tiring but it is well worth it! Try it just once and I'm sure you'll agree. -- posted by Amy Duchesne

French Canadian Tourtiere II

Mon, 14 Jan 2002 09:22:11 -0500

This French Canadian Dish has a very distinct flavor. Each chef has his/her own recipe that they hoard because they know their's is the best. This is not my recipe but it is tried and true -- posted by Bergy

French Canadian Tourtiere I

Mon, 14 Jan 2002 09:22:39 -0500

The true (original) French Canadian tourtiere was made with 'Tourte' a type of pigeon, hence the name. It is very tasty. Be careful not to use too much allspice -- posted by Bergy

Meat Pie (Tourtiere)

Sat, 09 Mar 2002 11:52:33 -0500

Turkey Pot Pie With Biscuits

Mon, 09 Sep 2002 19:19:59 -0400

I have a collection of cook books and usually look up a few of the same recipes and combine the ingredients I like from each recipe so that it makes it my own. This one called for chicken but works for either or just as well. So hope you enjoy experiementing with it as I did. -- posted by Vet

Adi's Shepherd's Pie

Wed, 12 Mar 2003 20:00:43 -0500

I started making this for my family when I was around 13. My brother Adam, who I call Adi, was crazy about it. Some people use creamed corn, I found that the frozen corn kept everything nice and moist. I eyeballed everything in this recipe, so hopefully the amounts are fairly accurate. Enjoy... -- posted by Miraklegirl

Special Pork Tourtiere

Tue, 02 Mar 2004 20:00:17 -0500

This is a family favourite--my mom's wonderful east coast pork pie recipe, which I have added to over the years. Mom makes hers with a crust made from tea biscuits--I use a flaky pastry crust--both work well. Serve with red pepper jelly or chili sauce on side. -- posted by Baby Kato

Salmon Pie/Pate Au Saumon

Tue, 15 Feb 2005 19:59:47 -0500

In Quebec, this recipe is called Pate au Saumon- thus the french name. In English: Salmon Pie. The first time I tried a recipe similar to this, made by my mother-in-law, I didn't like it! Now, with my version, I can't get enough! -- posted by Amy Duchesne

Spaghetti Pie

Mon, 09 May 2005 16:56:59 -0400

This is a great way of using up left over cooked spaghetti, or just make it fresh. Ricotta cheese or sour cream can be substituted for cottage cheese. Two cups of any commercial jar spaghetti sauce or your own home made sauce can be substituted for the sauce ingredients in the recipe. -- posted by Dancer^

The Ultimate Tourtiere

Fri, 01 Jul 2005 12:28:39 -0400

Posted as a request. Tourtiere is a traditional favourite, and this recipe says it's been adapted to work with today's much leaner ground pork. The prep time listed is just based on making the meat filling and not the pie crust, which a recipe for is not given, so just use your favourite recipe. Serve warm with a chunky chili sauce,chutney type relish or pickled beets. Recipe from Homemakers Magazine. -- posted by Rhonda *J*

Canadian Prairie Tourtie're

Mon, 19 Sep 2005 20:47:47 -0400

Another savory Canadian pie, this one from Saskatchewan. This one is traditionally served on Christmas Eve after midnight mass or as a festive Sunday night supper. Loaded with meat and spices this is a very filling and hearty dish. -- posted by LAURIE

Potato and Bacon Tourtie're

Mon, 19 Sep 2005 20:48:02 -0400

A tourtie're is a savory French Canadian pie. Originally this was made in a cast iron pot over coals. This recipe is made in the oven. The unique part of this recipe is that the topping us poured over the inside of the pie after it is cooked. This is great for brunch or a hearty breakfast. Personally I would love to try this in the cast iron over the campfire and as soon as I do will report how it works. -- posted by LAURIE

Cheddar Cheesy Meat Pie

Thu, 05 Jan 2006 19:47:50 -0500

This is from our Church cookbook, it's very simple and so yummy! Something different when you don't know what to do with ground beef. Serve it with mashed potatoes or French Fries and the kids will love it. This is the kid friendly version, you can spice it up with some chiles or hot pepper sauce if you want to. We like it as is served with HP sauce. -- posted by ~Leslie~

Rustic Salmon Pie

Mon, 17 Apr 2006 15:37:33 -0400

Delicious and easy, great for a special occasion or even a week day dinner. The pastry on this is lushious! I used frozen butter and grated it, made it sooo flaky and delicious!! I think one could use almost any filling, I used pink salmon, probably the sockeye would have looked prettier. I'm sure a meat/chicken filling would work beautifully too. (from one of those little bakefest books, pullout from a magazine.) -- posted by Derf

Canadian Pork Pie

Sat, 17 Jun 2006 14:58:29 -0400

This was given to me by my Canadian friend and she says it's traditional French Canadian food. You can top individual servings with ketchup or mustard if you like. You can also add chopped onion to the meat if you want. -- posted by Baker*Chick

Tourtiere Tarts

Sat, 18 Nov 2006 22:31:54 -0500

Tourtiere is a French Canadian meat pie that is traditionally served on Christmas Eve. I first ever had these at the home of a French Canadian friend..I have been making them at Christmas time as a make ahead appetizer for years now. It can be made into one individual pie, but I prefer the individual tarts..I freeze these individually on cookie sheets and then vacuum seal in my bagger or can be stored in a plastic container. -- posted by Cat^..^atude

I have discovered the Tourtiere since coming to Canada and I have tried several varities. This is my favorite and you might want to use a deep pie plate for it. Chill time not included. I have not personaly made this but I have had it 3 times at a friends home and she passed the recipe to me. -- posted by Annacia

I love savory meat pies (must be my partly Canadian heritage) and I love the annual Taste of Home cookbooks! Here's a variation of a meat pie that includes a little "kick" of chili sauce, lightened by the substitution of ground turkey breast for the ground beef...From the 1999 Annual Taste Of Home cookbook, placed here for safekeeping!...Serve with steamed vegetables for a complete meal! -- posted by Cookin'withGas

French Canadian Tourtiere

Fri, 13 Feb 2009 00:36:32 -0500

There are almost as many recipes for this traditional French Canadian meat pie as there are French Canadians. I come by this one honestly as my father is of francophone heritage - his ancestors settled in Quebec back in the 1600s. Our family tradition is to serve this on Christmas Eve with beef gravy and petite pois (tiny sweet peas). -- posted by shopkeepervicki

Mme Benoit's Tourtière

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 11:06:48 -0500

Tourtière is a French Canadian meat pie which is traditionally served at Christmas. It may be made from pork, beef or a combination of meats sometimes including veal. Different regions in Quebec have their own traditional recipes. Some regions use game such as hare or duck rather than beef and pork. The pies should not have too much filling as they are just a part of the whole traditional Christmas dinner. It's usually served with tomato ketchup. This recipe is the creation of Mme Jehane Benoit, a famous Quebec cooking expert who received the Order of Canada for her contributions to Canadian cuisine. I found this recipe on recipesource.com and on blogger.com where it was posted by Lizzy Ferland. It is originally from the Canadiana Cookbook. -- posted by Dreamer in Ontario
