In Mama G's kitchen, the air hums with tradition and warmth, as she guides eager hands through the heart of French Canadian heritage. Her meat pie—a rich, fragrant tourtière—takes centre stage, each bite a story of roots and history. The class flows like family, stirring and laughing, learning the art of batch cooking: pies enough to warm many winter nights. Beside each pie, a jar of ketchup maison waits, its sweetness and spice crafted with care, a companion to the savoury dance of flavours. Together, they celebrate the spirit of home and the timeless joy of sharing a meal.
