Quebecois Countryside Recipes

Six beloved dishes from the farmhouses and sugar shacks of rural Quebec, from the pea soup pot on the woodstove to the maple pudding in the oven, each made with honest fats that let real ingredients shine.

Tourtiere, Quebec meat pie Viande

Tourtière

⏱ 2 hr 30 min🍽 8 servings🔥 Medium

The celebrated Quebec meat pie, spiced pork and beef baked in a flaky lard pastry. The centerpiece of every reveillon table since the days of New France.

Ingredients

  • 500g ground pork
  • 500g ground beef
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 medium potato, boiled and mashed
  • 250ml beef or chicken broth
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon and 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1 tsp dried savory, plus salt and black pepper
  • 400g flour and 200g cold lard, for the pastry
  • 1 egg, beaten, for glazing

Instructions

  1. Cut the cold lard into the flour with a pinch of salt, add just enough ice water to bring it together, and chill the pastry for 30 minutes.
  2. Brown the pork and beef in a heavy pot with the onion and garlic, breaking the meat up as it cooks.
  3. Add the broth, cinnamon, cloves, savory, salt, and pepper, then simmer gently for 30 minutes until most of the liquid is absorbed.
  4. Stir in the mashed potato to bind the filling and let it cool completely.
  5. Roll out two rounds of pastry, line a deep pie dish with one, fill it, and cover with the second, crimping the edges shut.
  6. Brush with beaten egg, cut a vent in the center, and bake at 190C (375F) for 45 to 50 minutes until deep golden.
  7. Rest 15 minutes before slicing, and serve with pickled beets or green tomato ketchup.

Flour, butter, and baking tools on a countryside kitchen table
Notre cuisine de campagne

A Kitchen Warmed by the Sugar Shack

Basvex Cuisine grew from a love of the food that fills a Quebec farmhouse, the kind simmered all afternoon on the woodstove and shared at a long table when the snow piles up outside. From the sugar bushes of the Beauce to the dairy farms along the St. Lawrence, our cooking leans on the honest ingredients and good fats that country kitchens have always kept close.

Every dish we share is built on churned butter, traditional lard, and pure maple syrup, never refined vegetable or seed oils. We cook each recipe until it tastes like something worth setting on the table, then write it down plainly so it travels easily into your own kitchen.

This is unhurried food. A tourtiere resting under its golden crust, a pot of pea soup murmuring for hours, syrup boiled slowly until it turns to gold. We invite you to slow down, pour a cup of something warm, and taste what patience and good ingredients can do.
