We have something for everyone in this sweet and savory baking class. Sweet tooths will be satisfied with Penuche Fudge. Spice lovers rejoice with Hermits, a molasses cookie studded with dried fruit and nuts, which French Canadian children often leave out for Père Noël (Father Christmas). If you prefer savory food, then you will love baking Tourtière, a spiced pork and potato-filled pie beloved in Quebec’s holiday feasts. If you don't eat pork, we are also making Salmon Pie, a simpler, sustainable twist on the classic. For both, you'll learn how to make a perfect butter pastry and roll it out to fill your pie.
Celebrate French Canadian holiday traditions with this festive hands-on cooking class filled with sweet and savory bakes!
You’ll practice essential baking skills, test advanced techniques, and learn the unique pronunciations for these traditional dishes. Bring the flavors of Quebec to your holiday table with these new showstoppers that are sure to impress!
