Chef Fisun Ercan’s New Cookbook and Culinary Memoir Taps Her Farm-to-Table Roots | Eater Montreal

"Housed in an ancestral stone house in Saint-Blaise-sur-Richelieu, Ferme Bika is a farm-to-table restaurant that Ercan both farms and calls home; she acquired it in 2018 and uses it to serve seasonal, locally sourced menus, give cooking classes, and invite guests to plunge their hands into Bika’s dirt. Racines frames knowledge and techniques through Ferme Bika’s four seasons, featuring kitchen building blocks like dandelion syrup and tomato paste preserves as well as dishes such as grilled asparagus with homemade yogurt and lemon, all grounded in her ingredient-based, low-waste philosophy and commitment to Quebec products and environmental responsibility." - JP Karwacki
