What would be typical Canadian food? |
Travel Info Sorry if this is a dumb question but I have to write a couple hundred words about typical Canadian food and style of cooking but am having trouble finding Canadian only food and cooking styles. Also I would appreciate some points about Canada's geography. Thanks. Travel Tips This all depends on what part of Canada you're in... We're a big country and we've got a lot of different kinds of people and cultures. East coast (aka: maritime provinces) - Cod fish, lobster, muscles, potatoes - all really popular Northern Quebec - good old fashioned home cooking - roast beef, potatoes, stews (it gets pretty cold and they have a lot of lumber jacks) Southern Quebec - Smoked meat, high quality cheeses, fish and of course everyone's favourite - Poutine (that is the correct spelling) - home made french fries covered in cheese CURDS and smothered in gravy (damn good!) Northern Ontario - wild game (moose, deer, duck) fish from the fresh lakes, more home cooking - it can get cold up there too. Southern Ontario - pretty much like every other city in the US. We have really high imigration so basically anything you can think of from around the world we'll have here. Prairie Provinces (Saskatechewan, Manitoba) - pretty basic stuff. Lots of farm land out there so lots of home cooking. Alberta - BEEF! we have cowboys and ranchers and good Canadian beef and they eat a lot of it. British Columbia - similar to Southern Ontario - lots of imigration and similar to the US Northern Territories - again, REALLY cold for a good portion of the year so stick to your ribs food. More big game is eaten here (moose, bison, etc). In the native inuit areas it's a little more diverse. They eat seal (usually raw) and lots of fish. It's really far north and very expensive to get fresh veggies and fruit brought up so they eat what they grow and what lives in the area. Hope that helps!
