Bouilli du Québec

Description

Bouilli is a classic Québécois dish that is similar to the famous French pot-au-feu , made with inexpensive cuts of beef and salt pork, with vegetables such as carrots, turnips, cabbage, and potatoes. The combination of those ingredients is slowly simmered in a herb-flavored broth until the meat is tender and the broth becomes full of flavor. The name of the dish literally means boiled . Although there is no single recipe for the dish and every family prepares it differently, most people like to place a slice of bread with mustard at the bottom of the serving bowl, adding a slight acidity to this hearty dish.
