Lobster rolls

A New England classic, the lobster roll is a great way to enjoy in-season Quebec crustaceans. Some people are fans of the traditional recipe—a hot-dog bun stuffed with lobster meat, mayonnaise, celery and lemon juice—while others prefer mixing in curry, Tabasco sauce or fresh herbs.

This Eastern Townships sparkling wine pairs well with this sandwich where the lobster meat is highlighted. Vibrant and fruity, it perfectly complements the iodine character and the freshness of the preparation.

Salmon bites

For a fresh and festive 5 à 7, swap the classic charcuterie and cheese platter for salmon rillettes. Given that there are so many recipe variations to choose, opt for whatever you have in your kitchen: cream cheese, yogourt, mustard, capers, chives, dill or lemon juice. Plus, it’s a great way to use leftover cooked salmon!
