Steps:
- Combine flour and salt in a large bowl.

- Shape the dough into a ball, flatten, wrap, and chill in the refrigerator. While pastry is chilling, prepare the filling.
- Peel and cut potatoes into 2-inch chunks, add them to a medium saucepan, and fill with water until it covers the potatoes by 2-inches.

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.

TOURTIERE DE FLEUR-ANGE (FLEUR-ANGE'S PORK PIE)
Steps:
- In a large, heavy saucepan over medium heat, combine pork, water, celery and leaves, onions, garlic, parsley, savory, cinnamon, cloves, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes, adding more water, if necessary, to prevent mixture from drying. Adjust seasoning, if necessary. Let cool.
- Line two 8-inch pie plates with pastry and fill with meat mixture. Roll out top crusts, cutting a generous vent in the centre of each. (Mme Fleur-Ange Rochon always cut her vents in the shape of an evergreen tree.) Cover each pie with top crust, trim pastry, crimp the edges to seal, and cut small steam vents. Brush top of pastry with egg yolk and milk mixture.
- Bake pies in a preheated 400 degree F oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until crust is golden. Serve either hot or cold with pickles or relish.
- Tip: Meat pies may be made ahead and refrigerated. Unbaked pies may be refrigerated for 24 hours, or frozen. Thaw in refrigerator before baking.
- For Pastry:
- In a bowl, mix 2 cups sifted, all-purpose flour with 1/4 teaspoon salt. With pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in 3/4 cup chilled, cubed shortening or lard until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Measure 1/4 to 1/3 cup ice water. Sprinkle over mixture, a spoonful at a time, stirring with a fork, adding just enough water so dough holds together. Shape into a ball, press into a flat disc, wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour. Leftover pastry can be frozen for later use.
PORK PIE
This is a great dish to make around the holidays because it is not only great served hot but is every bit as good warm or at room temperature. Just set it out when guests arrive and watch it disappear. I would say it makes great leftovers but it has never made it that far.

Steps:
- For the double crust leaf lard pastry: In a bowl, mix the flour and salt together with 2 knives. Cut in the lard until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the ice water over the mixture, a spoonful at a time, stirring with a fork and adding just enough water so it holds together. Shape into a ball, press into a flat disc, wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour.
- For the pork filling: Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until crisp; remove to a plate. Add the pork and a pinch of salt and brown for 2 minutes; remove to a plate. Add the potatoes, celery, celery leaves, parsley, savory, garlic and onions and sweat for 3 to 5 minutes. Deglaze the skillet with 1 cup of water, scraping up the brown bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon. Add the pork and bacon back to the skillet with the cinnamon, cloves and a large pinch of salt, and simmer until the liquid has evaporated, 20 minutes.
- While the mixture is simmering, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly flour a work surface. Roll out the chilled pastry into two 13-inch rounds for a 10-inch double-crust pie, or into one 14-inch round for a single-crust pie. If using the double-crust method, line a 10-inch pie plate with one of the pastry rounds and fill with the meat mixture; cover with the remaining pastry. Trim and crimp the edges to seal, and cut small steam vents. Brush the top of the pastry with the egg yolk and milk mixture. If using the single-crust method, place the meat mixture in a 10-inch pie plate and cover with the single pastry round. Trim, press the edges into the sides of the pan and cut small steam vents in the center. Brush the top of the pastry with the egg yolk and milk mixture. Bake until the crust is golden, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool for 30 minutes and serve warm.
TAVERN BEEF AND PORK PIE
Steps:
- In a large skillet, saute the precooked beef and pork cubes, onions and garlic in the butter over high heat for 5 minutes, until the onions are golden brown.
- Add the red wine to deglaze the pan, loosening any browned bits on the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add the mushrooms, basil, parsley, thyme, salt, pepper, and cook until the liquid has evaporated.
- Stir in the demi-glace and cook about 5 minutes more, until all liquid has evaporated again. Remove from the heat. Spread the mixture out onto a baking sheet and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Refrigerate the mixture about 1 hour to cool completely. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut out 6 (6 to 8-inch) squares and brush the edges with the egg mixture. Place 1 cup of the meat mixture in the center of each square. Fold each square over diagonally to form a triangle and press the edges firmly to seal. Using a fork, gently prick the center of each triangle to allow steam to escape. Lightly brush the edges again with the egg mixture. Arrange the triangles 2-inches apart on a greased baking sheet.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until golden brown.
THE SHAKESPEARE TAVERN'S SHEPHERD'S PIE
I'll be surprised if this isn't the best shepherd's pie you've ever eaten! This recipe is adapted from the New American Shakespeare Tavern in Atlanta, Georgia. I would like to point out that the chef at the Tavern likes to clarify that in England this would be called cottage pie because it is made with beef, not mutton (lamb) - "thus the need for the shepherd." Most Americans are more familiar with the name, shepherd's pie. No matter what you call it, this pie is something special ...chuck roast slow-cooked until it's falling apart tender with delicious vegetables and herbs, topped with garlic mashed potatoes. It smells so heavenly while it's cooking that I guarantee your family (and friends and neighbors) will gather around the oven waiting for you to serve it. Although, this shepherd's pie is fairly easy to prepare, make it on a day that you have some extra time, since it is a little time consuming...but, Oh, So Well Worth It!!!!!!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- In an ovenproof Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, celery, and 2 cloves of minced garlic and cook until the vegetables begin to soften, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat a 12-inch skillet over high heat. Add 1 teaspoon vegetable oil and swirl to cover the pan. Sprinkle the beef pieces with salt and pepper. When the oil is shimmering, but not smoking, add half the beef and brown on all sides, then add the beef to the Dutch oven with the vegetables. Pour 1/3 cup of the white wine into the skillet and cook over high heat until it reduces by half, scraping up any of the browned bits left by the beef. Pour the reduction into the Dutch oven. Repeat the browning process with the oil and beef, and repeat the wine reduction, adding both to the Dutch oven.
- Pour 3/4 cup of the chicken broth and the Worcestershire sauce into the Dutch oven, and add half of the minced thyme and half the minced rosemary, reserving the remaining chicken broth and herbs. Stir the beef mixture well and bring to a simmer on top of the stove. Once the beef is simmering, cover the Dutch oven and put it in the oven for 1 1/2 hours.
- While the beef is cooking, start the potatoes. Boil the whole potatoes in plenty of water until the are easily pierced with a fork, about 45 minutes. Pour off the water and let the potatoes sit, off the heat, until they are cool enough to handle. Melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the 6 cloves of minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds, then remove from heat. Press the potatoes through a potato ricer, or peel and mash them by hand. Pour in the melted garlic butter, and beat the potatoes until they are light and fluffy. Cover and keep warm.
- After 1 1/2 hours in the oven, check the beef for tenderness - it should be just about falling apart. Stir the cornstarch into the reserved 1/4 cup of chicken broth and stir the mixture into the hot beef. Stir in the remaining minced rosemary and thyme. and continue stirring until the mixture has thickened.
- Pour the beef mixture into a 9-x13-inch baking dish . Spread the mashed potatoes over the top, return to the oven and bake for 30 minutes until hot and bubbly.
