Bonjour, I'm Thomas.

I was born in France and moved to Canada three years ago. I love French cooking, and making familiar dishes here helps me feel at home. Finding Canadian equivalents for French ingredients can take some figuring out, so I'm sharing recipes and ingredient swaps to help you bring a little of France to your own kitchen.
