MME BENOIT'S TOURTIèRE

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.

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients except breadcrumbs and pastry in a saucepan.
  • Bring to a boil and cook, uncovered, over medium heat for 20 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and add a 3 or 4 spoonfuls of breadcrumbs.
  • Let mixture stand for 10 minutes.
  • If the fat is sufficiently absorbed by the breadcrumbs, do not add more. If not, add more crumbs in the same manner.
  • Cool mixture and spoon into a pastry-lined pie plate.
  • Cover with crust and bake at 400F until golden brown (follow directions for pie crust you chose).
  • Serve hot.
  • NOTE: Cooked tourtière may be frozen for 4 to 5 months and does not need to be thawed before reheating.
  • To reheat, place your frozen tourtiere (covered in foil) in a medium oven and bake until a knife inserted in the center is hot when you pull it out.

1 lb ground beef (or combination of beef and pork, or beef, pork & veal)
1 small onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon celery salt
1/4 teaspoon clove, ground (a must for authentic Quebecois pie)
1/2 cup water
1/4-1/2 cup breadcrumbs
pastry for a double-crust 9-inch pie, of your choice

PASTRY DOUGH (MADAM BENOIT'S NO FAIL LEMON TANG PASTRY)

(September 2010 update below) This recipe was passed to me as an easy to work with no fail pastry that has made doing pastry easy and fun. Originally from a segment on Madam Benoit's cooking show - a recipe that wowed and was quickly passed around. She is right - it is a wonderful no fail pastry that makes for great tasting pies, as well as being freezer friendly. Recipe POSTED April 2004 - UPDATE Sept. 26, 2010 - am very familiar with the no fail recipe using vinegar and egg which was one often made by my mom - and one of Madame Benoits. It is also found on the back of the Tenderflake box. Another of her pastry recipes is her LEMON TANG PASTRY- and yes it does call for three tablespoons of Lemon juice. I am a Madame Benoit fan and this Lemon Tang Pastry is not mine - it is hers - and in my books an absolute winner ( Madame Benoit was a great cooking show host from way back - a Canadian cooking Institution by herself. She attended the Cordon Bleu in Paris and went on to become the famous Madame Benoit) It's a big recipe and if you are only making one pie, taking a few extra minutes to roll out shells for the freezer makes for having those pastry shells on hand for those unexpected moments when needing a special dessert. Works for me! Easily halved as well as very freezer friendly.

Pastry Dough (Madam Benoit's No Fail Lemon Tang Pastry) image

Steps:

  • A LARGE MIXING BOWL: 5 cups flour 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon soda Use a whisk to mix.
  • Cut in one pound of lard.
  • Mix to resemble coarse crumbs.
  • IN A ONE CUP MEASURING CUP: Add 1 whole egg 3 tablespoons lemon juice Mix with a fork and add enough water to fill the one cup measuring cup.
  • Add the cup of liquid to the dry ingredients and mix until dough forms into a ball.
  • (at this point I form into balls using approximate amount for the size pie plate I'm using and place into a plastic bag until ready to roll.) NOTE: Rolling the dough between two sheets of wax paper makes for a nice even sheet of pastry.
  • This will make 3-4 double pies-- depending on what size pie pans you are using.

TOURTIERE DU QUEBEC (FRENCH-CANADIAN MEAT PIE)

I grew in Quebec and always looked forward to Christmas to be able to eat meat pies. When I married & moved to the US, I took the recipe with me, no way I can spend Christmas without the smell of cooking meat pies. Luckily for me, hubby & kids are hooked. I've been making this recipe for years, delicious.

Steps:

  • Place all the ingredients (except for pie shell) in a sauce pan and bring to boil and cook uncovered for 20 minutes over medium heat.
  • Cool the meat mixture and pour in pastry lined pan. Note: I like to cool mine in refrigerator over night if time permits.
  • Cover with the top crust, cut steam vents and bake in a 400F oven until golden, about 45 minutes.
  • Freeze well.
  • Note: If ground pork and ground veal cannot be found, you can use meatloaf mix which is all 3 meat but I'm not sure of the ratio.

THE MEATY HISTORY OF QUéBéCOIS TOURTIèRE - FOOD NETWORK CANADA
Some food historians believe tourtière may be related to a 5 th -century pie called “La Patina,” made in a bronze pot with layers of pastry and a hole in the crust’s centre. However, in Québec, the earliest recipes for tourtière appeared in La cuisinière canadienne (1840), likely the first French-language cookbook published in Canada.
