Tourtière
Tourtière is a traditional meat pie originating from Quebec, Canada. It is typically made with a mixture of minced pork, beef, or game, seasoned with spices such as cinnamon and cloves. The filling is encased in a flaky pastry crust and is often enjoyed during the holiday season, particularly at Christmas and New Year's celebrations.
This savory dish has roots in French-Canadian cuisine and reflects the culinary traditions of early settlers. While the recipe can vary by family and region, Tourtière remains a beloved comfort food, often served with ketchup or pickles on the side.
