Soupe aux gourganes is a dish from Quebec's traditional cuisine made with gourgane beans, a strain of fava bean produced in Quebec. Although the bean is not widely cultivated in Quebec today, it has been present there since the beginnings of the colonization of New France, and the soup remains an emblematic food of the Charlevoix and Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean regions, often eaten as a hearty main dish.
