French roots go deep here in Canada, but today, those culinary roots are wonderfully tangled up with the recipes, stories and delicious kitchen inventions of cooks from around the world. In this episode, we explore how old-world traditions live on, how they’ve exerted influence south of the border, and how they’ve become intertwined with the traditions of new arrivals.

Bon appetit!
