Tourtière, a French Canadian meat pie dish originating from Quebec, is a meal that will keep you and your family and friends warm on a cold winter evening. Generally served around Christmas time, this meat pie is made with a various meats, vegetables, and spices. The filing is unique, but the crust is the "piece de resistance" with Adele’s tried and true "Hot Crust" method that yields a flaky pie crust that is delicious and simple to make. This is a perfect dish to make ahead and freeze for additional chilly nights.
Adele will demonstrate her secret methods with the class, and then each student will get to sample the results before making their own small pie to take home and freeze or bake at your leisure!
This class will meet inside CVU.
Adele grew up in a multi-generational Italian family in Philadelphia. Once a "picky eater" she has grown to love the foods celebrating her heritage and relishes in sharing the joys of an Italian kitchen with others. Adele teaches a variety of classes for Access and as well as private classes about cooking Italian classics.
