Petes de Sœur Traditionnels – Pâtisserie Classique du Temps des Sucres

Les pets de sœur appartiennent à cette deuxième catégorie.

Ce petit dessert traditionnel du Québec n’était pas vraiment une recette à l’origine. C’était plutôt une façon astucieuse d’utiliser les restes de pâte à tarte après avoir préparé une tourtière, une tarte au sucre ou une tarte aux fruits.

Traditional Pets de Sœur (Québec Sugar Shack Pastry Made with Pie Dough)

This traditional Québec pastry was never meant to be a proper recipe. Instead, it was the clever way grandmothers used up leftover pie dough after making tourtière, sugar pie, or fruit pies. Rather than letting scraps go to waste, they rolled the dough thin, spread it with butter and brown sugar, and baked the little spirals in a simple caramel sauce.

5 Ingredient | Sheet Pan Sausage and Sweet Potato Roast for 2

This 5-ingredient sheet pan sausage and sweet potato roast is my kind of cooking — simple, cozy, and full of flavour. Perfectly portioned for one or two people, it’s a no-fuss dinner that comes together in under an hour with minimal prep and cleanup.

I used locally made sausages from a nearby butcher (support local!) paired with sweet potatoes, grey shallots, grainy mustard, and a drizzle of pomegranate molasses for a sweet and tangy finish. Roasted all together on a parchment-lined sheet pan, it’s both rustic and refined, and easily scalable — whether you're cooking for 2 or 8.
