Our holiday tradition continues with another year of bake-at-home tourtière off sales. Nothing says “comfort cooking” better than one of our famous Lac Saint-Jean inspired meat pies. Each one comes fully assembled, frozen, and feeds 6-8 people. The filling is fully cooked, the pie crust is not.
Meat filling ingredients: Irving’s farm pork, Thundering ground bison, Morinville Colony braised turkey, potato, onion, garlic, mushrooms, molasses, red wine, duck fat, cinnamon, allspice, cloves, ginger, rosemary, thyme.
BAKING INSTRUCTIONS (FROM FROZEN):
Preheat oven to 325.
Cover pie with tin foil.
Place tourtière on middle rack of the oven (no baking sheet needed, place pie tin directly on the rack)
Bake for approximately 1.5-2 hours (until warm when tested in the center)
Remove tinfoil, brush the top with a beaten egg.
Increase temperature of oven to 375, and continue to bake until golden brown.
Carefully remove from the oven and run a butter knife around the rim the pie tin. Slice, serve & enjoy the holidays!
