Cooking Canada, Quebec
© Copyright
The cooking in Quebec is very similar to that of France or the United States. There are, however, some typical dishes, such as pig's trotters stew, ham with maple syrup, or beans with bacon. The meat pie is a dish consisting of all types of meat, usually a mixture of pork and veal. Potted meat can be served for breakfast. Soups are regularly served as a starter. Pea soup is the most common. Chinese pâté, a gratin of mashed potatoes, corn and minced meat, was served to the Asian workers during the construction of the Trans-Canada Highway. Very nourishing! As a dessert, you will find sugar, pecan, or blueberry pies.
