Food Photo of the Day ~ Dill Pickle Poutine

 

Poutine is another favourite of ours that has more to do with the prep than cooking. I know I am not the first person to put chopped dill pickles on poutine in fact there is a poutinerie that has done so however at times when offered and visited, they have been sold out. So I decided to try a more modest approach, my version at home. I didn't fry the dill pickles, perhaps next time. They were quartered and roughly chopped and were an instant hit. Adding a fresh tangy sharp flavour to the savoury sautéed bacon and mushrooms, salty stretchy curds, pool of traditional seasoned gravy and slices of green onion, which I forgot and put on after the photo was taken. Very scrumptious for a unique blend of flavours with an added zing.

Food Photo of the Day ~ Poutine

Poutine, a French Canadian dish dating back to the 1950's. You can make your own chips (French fries) or use store bought; this is a great build your own dinner to warm up to. French fries sprinkled with local cheese curds, green onions, sautéd mushrooms, Canadian bacon all smothered with gravy is absolutely irresistible. This does not replace traditional poutine, of course, or even poutine served at a Poutinerie however this came pretty close and satisfied our poutine craving!
