Poutine
Few Canadian dishes are as world-renowned as the glorious creation known as
poutine. Crispy fries, squeaky cheese curds and rich gravy all combine to create the
meal of dreams, and this French Canadian food is so popular that it can now be
found all around the world. The classic version is great on its own, but toppings
like pulled pork, bacon and smoked meat really knock it out of the park – and at an
average price of £3.50, it won’t break the bank either.
Bannock
Delicious and versatile, bannock is a simple bread that was once a key staple in the diets of
Canada’s Aboriginal people. Modern takes on bannock include baked versions (which are
heavy/dense) and fried versions (which are crispy and fluffy on the inside). In recent years,
bannock has seen a surge in popularity, with new twists and variations popping up in
bakeries and cafes nationwide – you have to try it!
