This French Canadian meat pie is easy to make, visually impressive, and absolutely delicious! It features a savory meat filling with warm holiday spices, encased in a tender, flaky crust.
To make the pie dough, combine all-purpose flour, salt, and two sticks of very cold, cubed butter in a food processor. Pulse on and off for about 30 seconds until the butter is reduced to pea-sized pieces.
Drizzle in cold water spiked with white vinegar. Pulse on and off until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs and can be pressed together to hold its shape.
Transfer the mixture to a work surface and press it together into a dough ball.
Wrap the dough in plastic and chill in the fridge for at least one hour.
For the spice blend, combine kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, dried sage, dried thyme, cinnamon, ground ginger, freshly grated nutmeg, allspice, dried mustard, ground clove, and cayenne pepper in a bowl.
Cold pie dough is always much easier to work with than warm dough.
Do not overwork the pie dough in the food processor to ensure a tender, flaky crust.
Cook onions to a nice golden brown to add depth of flavor, not just until translucent.
Reserve the potato cooking water; it's used to achieve the desired paste-like texture of the meat filling.
Allow the meat filling to cool to room temperature before assembling the pie for best results.
When placing the bottom crust, adjust it down from the sides rather than stretching it across the bottom.
Make sure to create a vent in the top crust (e.g., with knife slits or a decorative cutter) to allow steam to escape during baking and prevent the pie from exploding.
Bake the pie until it is nicely browned, especially ensuring the bottom crust turns golden for optimal texture and doneness.
For the best texture and flavor, it is highly recommended to let the tourtiere cool down to room temperature or just slightly warm before serving, as hot pie may crumble.
