FRENCH MEAT PIE
Some time ago, when I was working at a newspaper, a co-worker happened to bring a meat pie for lunch. The aroma was familiar to me, and I asked for a taste. To my amazement, it was the same pie my grandmother used to serve when I was a youngster! I copied the meat pie recipe, and I have been enjoying it ever since. -Rita Winterberger, Huson, Montana

TOURTIERE (FRENCH CANADIAN MEAT PIE)
This French Canadian meat pie is hearty, satisfying, and easy to make so it's a great choice for a holiday main course. Visually impressive, relatively affordable, and best served at room temperature, so a tourtiere doesn't require any kind of precise timing.

Steps:
- Place flour, salt, and frozen butter slices into the bowl of a food processor. Pulse on and off until butter is about the size of peas, about 30 seconds. Stir vinegar into cold water; drizzle water/vinegar into the flour mixture. Pulse on and off until mixture is crumbly and holds together when you pinch a piece off, about 10 seconds. If dough isn't pressing together, drizzle in another teaspoon of water.
- Transfer mixture to a work surface. Press it together until it becomes a lump of dough. Wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour.
- Mix salt, pepper, thyme, sage, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, mustard, clove, and cayenne together in a small bowl.
- Place potato quarters in a saucepan; cover with cold water. Add 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat. Simmer until cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Scoop out potatoes and transfer to a bowl; save cooking liquid. Mash potatoes with a potato masher.
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and a pinch of salt. Cook and stir until onions turn golden, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Stir garlic, celery, and spice blend into the skillet with onions. Stir until onion mixture is evenly coated with the spices, about 30 seconds. Add ground beef and ground pork. Ladle about 3/4 cup of the potato cooking liquid into the skillet.
- Cook and stir until meat is browned and has a very fine, almost pastelike texture. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until meat is tender and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 45 minutes. Stir in mashed potatoes. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Divide chilled dough into 2 pieces, one just slightly larger than the other. Roll the larger piece out into a 12-inch circle on a lightly floured work surface. Place in a 9-inch deep dish pie plate. Roll top crust out into a circle about 11 inches in diameter. Cut small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
- Fill bottom crust with the meat mixture; smooth out the surface. Whisk egg and water together to make egg wash. Brush edges of the bottom crust with egg wash. Place top crust on the pie and press lightly around the edges to seal. Trim excess dough from the crust. Crimp the edges of the crust. Brush entire surface of the pie with egg wash.
- Place in preheated oven. Bake until well browned, about 1 hour. Let cool to almost room temperature before serving.

FRECH MEAT PIE (GREAT-GREAT GRANDMA'S RECIPE)
My great-great grandparents were French Canadian. When a fire destroyed their home, they packed up the few possessions that could not burn (her metal measuring cups and a few pots and pans) and their two small boys and headed to the US to find work. I still have her measuring cups, and thankfully, her recipes which were safely...

Steps:
- 1. Place ground pork, onions, garlic and water in large pan and simmer on medium low until all water boils away (about 1 1/2 hours) stirring occasionally. Do not allow to brown at the end.
- 2. While meat is cooking, peel and boil potatoes as you would for mashed potatoes. Do not add butter or milk. Can use left over mashed potatoes, if you have them, but there will be enough fat from the pork. Mash thoroughly with a fork.
- 3. When potatoes and meat are done, combine and add spices. Taste and add more depending on your family's taste. We usually heap the above measurements, but use your own discretion.
- 4. Place bottom pie crust in pan. Add filling and top with top crust. Cut a few small slits for steam to escape. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-45 minutes. Tent loosely at the end if browning too quickly. Serve with a tossed salad and "Fifth Generation Salad Dressing", posted below.

FAVORITE FRENCH CANADIAN MEAT PIE
I'm a seventh-generation French Canadian, and my ancestors started the tradition of serving this meat pie on Christmas Eve. One year I didn't make it, and my daughter and I felt something was missing. The savory pie goes well with salad and fresh rolls for a lighter meal, and it's good served in small portions with turkey and all the trimmings, too.

This is different than the others as this uses crumbled crackers. It comes from RecipeCenter. My DH and DD both enjoyed this variation very much. You can add some garlic powder if you like garlic.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350*.
- Sauté ground beef and pork with onions until no longer pink.
- In another pan boil and mash potatoes with garlic powder, salt and pepper.
- Do not drain fat from ground meat mixture.
- Add crumbled soda crackers, cinnamon, thyme, sage and mix well, the crackers help absorb a lot of the moisture and gives it great taste and texture.
- Next add mashed potatoes and mix well. I cool this before putting in crust but it isn't necessary if your baking it right away.
- Use a deep dish 9 or 10 inch pie plate and line bottom with 1 crust.
- Fill crust and then place second crust over filling, press edges together to seal: cut slits in top crust.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes or until golden brown.
- This recipe may be made ahead of time and baked later, up to 24 hours ahead as long as kept refrigerated.
- Also can be frozen after prepared for a later date.
- I have started making this in 2 smaller foil pie pans and freeze one for another time. Each pie feeds 4 or 2 with leftovers.
