Poutine (lemmy.world)

I was “today” years old when I discovered poutine. I’d had fries with gravy before but poutine is much better! Where has this been all of my life?

Actually a bit of a fusion: birria poutine at the local Biergarten, SO GOOD!

You guys call it squeaky cheese in your part of Canada?

    The standard fare poutine around here is made with curd-like mozzerella I think, its kinda mushy like the fries themselves, its just called "poutine". I've never had poutine with cheese so squeaky like I had that one time in Quebec, it was firm, chewy, and loud. Probably about 15 years ago now. Never had anything like it since.

    I live in Saskatchewan, and we are pretty big into poutines here. We even have a guy here that goes to each place and rates their poutines lol.

    We ( in my household) love to judge the quality of the cheese used. Curds vs mozza is quite noticeable.

    It's my favourite cheese to just eat chunks of, quite satisfying texture.
