In March 2025, I embarked on a culinary adventure inspired by my province: Quebec.
In an attempt to learn more about the cooking from this beautiful province, I've set a challenge for myself to cook and bake a variety of its diverse recipes.
Each dish must be unique and approved by my Québécois friends or come from a Québécois cookbook.
