Poutine

a day ago by AA5B to c/til

I was “today” years old when I discovered poutine. I’d had fries with gravy before but poutine is much better! Where has this been all of my life?

Actually a bit of a fusion: birria poutine at the local Biergarten, SO GOOD!

Growing up in New Mexico we have green chile cheese fries instead of poutine. And chile here is not meat and spices, it is a vegetable.

Green chili is the best chili

That would be amazing I'll need to try that. I would be tempted to add dollops of sour cream to that too.

See of you can find Crema (Mexican sour cream) - it's much better than regular sour cream (for Mexican dishes). It's thinner, a little salty.

It's been in Quebec, where it's made with squeaky cheese. I had some from a roadside poutine stand there one time. The first time I ever had poutine was in Timmins, Ontario, about 40 years ago. Blew my mind it was so good.

It's literally everything the caveman lizard brain craves in food. Salt, fat, carbs, yummy texture and flavour.

Cheese curds to be more specific and all of Canada, not just Quebec.

Squeaky cheese

This style of cheese originated in the province of Québec in the 1960’s. At the time, local dairy farms had surplus milk, and they needed to use it for something. Cheese-making, it turned out, was the ideal solution.

All cheese is made from curdled milk, and Squeaky Cheese is no different. The main difference between cheese curds and the traditional blocks of cheddar you see in the grocery store is age and whey content.

I have to admit my first choice was the Korma, but this was late on a Sunday and they ran out of rice. They actually offered to serve the Korma over fries, but that’s just wrong

That sounds delicious! Now I need to find an Indian place that also serves fries.

I'm curious where you live that you have just discovered poutine

Probably somewhere in Canada. It’s rare there, but common elsewhere.

Rare in Canada? Quebec is like the home of poutine! You can find it in many restaurants, Costco, A&W come to mind immediately

Closer than you’d think. I grew up in upstate New York and have since lived in new England. Quebec is practically next door

That’s the weird part: New England. So near to Quebec. I’ve met so many visitors from Montreal especially. Ive read so many mentions online.

Heck, my ex-grandmother-in-Law was French Canadian
