ginny Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Carol, I'm doing a set of poutine recipes. There's supposed to be unique. The only uniqueness I've come up with is adding bacon and Worcester sauce. Any suggestions? There's will be all kinds of poutine dishes. I just did corned beef sandwich with poutine. I added the bacon and brought it over 5000 calories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syrakusos Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Gack! The dish originated in rural Quebec, Canada, in the late 1950s. Several Québécois communities claim to be the birthplace of poutine, including Drummondville (by Jean-Paul Roy in 1964), ... Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu,[citation needed] and Victoriaville ... One often-cited tale is that of Fernand Lachance, from Warwick, Quebec, which claims that poutine was invented there in 1957... Lachance is said to have exclaimed, "ça va faire une maudite poutine" ("it will make a damn mess") when asked to put a handful of curds on some french fries, hence the name. The sauce was allegedly added later, to keep the fries warm longer. Over time the dish's popularity spread mainly across the province (and later throughout Canada), often served in small town restaurants, bars, as well as being quite popular in ski resorts...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poutine Speaking of "gagh" ...http://www.startrek.com/database_article/gaghfried macaroni anyone?

ginny Posted June 8, 2013 Author Share Posted June 8, 2013 Mike, I'm not eating that stuff. The description you have must be basic, 'cause there's gravy and other stuff that gets added. I wasn't making up the calorie count. Perhaps innocent Carol can explain the workings of the Canadian stomach. I'm thinking Tums must be a best-seller up north.

ginny Posted June 8, 2013 Author Share Posted June 8, 2013 Thanks. I'm sure I'll be able to use the smokespoutinerie, and I noticed the double bacon. Dear lord!!. What does this stuff taste like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9thdoctor Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Shouldn't this thread be in "The Kitchen" forum? I've never noticed that Carol if one who needs to be asked to sober up. Poutine is kind of like chili cheese fries, I gather. I've never had it. Sounds like something I would try once. Once. I don't see how the fries don't get all sogged out, right away.

caroljane Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Ninth, Ginny was referring to my latest limerick.Ginny, help is at hand! Later today I will copy from the menu of the local poutine shack, which is conveniently located next to the pub. They have a Daily Poutine each one unique.It tastes like French Fries with gravy and cheese, with additions It is no doubt a key ingredient of the Quebecois Revanche de la Creche. A family even in the double digits would never starve, while yet remained a potato in the cellar and a cow in the byre. Tums are indeed in high demand here, but as mentioned elsewhere I forgo the elegance and expense of fancy packaging and opt for the simple efficacy of baking soda and water.
