Autumn is here and we’re once again in the mood to spend more time in the kitchen. Here are two quick and easy, but still delicious, recipes inspired by the Boursin Summer Recipes book. This book, which you can download for free here, offers several delicious recipes perfect for summer, but also for all seasons

And since Boursin is proudly produced in Quebec, we had the opportunity to adapt the recipes by integrating other local producers that we love, Miel d’Anicet and Les 400 pieds de champignon! Here is a brief background on these incredible local producers.

Located at Ferme-Neuve in the Upper Laurentians, Miel d’Anicet‘s honey house produces between five and seven varieties of honey with the utmost respect for the product and the bees. The company stands out for its emphasis on beekeeping traditions, which results in an exclusive honey of great quality. In addition, Anicet’s bees gather honey in a forest region that has preserved a diversity of wild flowers that is almost unique in Quebec, which gives the product its exceptional taste and allows it to be certified organic. Moreover, if you are in the area, we strongly recommend that you stop by their Cantine Pollens & Nectars, which offers seasonal cuisine flavoured with honey; it is absolutely delicious and the decor is bucolic. It will be the perfect occasion to visit the place and to stock up on honey as well as natural beauty products made with honey! If you can’t make it to the store, the online store is here.

The beautiful Montreal-based company Les 400 pieds de champignon, specializing in the production of beautiful homegrown mushrooms, focuses on distribution to individuals. Founded by three friends in 2018, the company takes its name from the first space in which the adventure began; located in Côte-des-Neiges, this space was 400 square feet and allowed the cultivation of three types of mushrooms. Since then, due to the explosion of the demand, the company had to move and now grows about ten varieties. You can have them delivered directly to your home, always knowing they were freshly picked the day before, by ordering via their Instagram page!

Here are two recipes for prolonging the summer with local products, to be recreated at home!
