Calling all Canucks!

Christ, I just found out that next week I'm at a school and doing my lesson 2nd period and then helping out in the 3rd and 4th period with the Industrial Arts class. No big deal. We're going to be cooking. Awesome

wikipedia to the rescue

I still say poutine.

Pancakes with bacon and maple syrup.
other than that (and yes, poutine) we don't have anything. That's the problem with being a big multicultural amalgam. We assimilate, not create. :D

Ignore Alex. We have plenty of damned good food that's native Canadian:

1) Butter Tarts - developed in the Maritimes in the 18th C. as a long-lasting, hearty source of energy. Delicious, too.

2) Poutine - Fries + beef gravy + cheese curds (make sure they're curds!) = sex on a plate

3) Beaver Tails - Deep-fried flats of dough, covered in powdered sugar and served with preserves.

4) Tourtiere - Quebecois Meat Pie. Take a pie shell of flaky pastry, fill it with a mix of ground beef, onions, garlic, salt, pepper and tomato-paste (not too much paste, though, just enough to bind everything together), bake et voila!

5) Peameal Bacon - Sandwiches, fried for breakfast or in roasts (with maple syrup on top, it is as magnificent to taste as a pair of young woman's breasts are to see!)

6) French Canadian Pea Soup - Chickpeas, water, a chunk of ham, salt and pepper = best thing in the world for eating on cold days.

Et Cetera.

Native Canadian is awful. Loon soup? Ugh greasy as hell and twice as gamy. Muskeg tea? DO YOU REALLY WANT TO DRINK A MUSKEG? The wild rices are nice though, I always liked a good rice dish from the 6 nations. Dry though.
