Shania Twain’s Poutine

December 1

No I’m not a huge country music fan, but when I heard that Shania Twain defended poutine as “Canadian comfort food” in response to Martha Stewart calling it “junk food,” the girl went up a notch or two in my book. Shania was a guest chef on Martha’s daytime talk show when this happened just a couple weeks ago. Of course, I had to grab the recipe… we love poutine!!!

Except Martha’s website had to give it a floo-floo fancy name – Oven fries with Mushroom gravy. Goodness, no wonder I don’t watch that show. Go over and see if you like the recipe. Couple of things I noted…

  1. I’ve never ever made my own fries when making poutine. But it’s a good idea if ya have the time.
  2. Where’s the cheese curds??!! Folks, be sure to add lots of cheese curds on top of the fries, then the gravy. In substitution for curds, we often settle for mozzarella. Poor us. lol

    I first learned of poutine three years ago when I visited Canada for the first time. I was surpised to see poutine vendors on street corners in St. Catharines near Niagara. I consider poutine as Canadian cuisine, not merely “junk food.”

    What does the jailbird know anyway?

    Take care

    Too true! That’s just it… she doesn’t know, but she was more than happy to insult. Oh well, poutine is awesome. Her loss. ;)

    Thanks for stopping by! :)

    Comments like that from MS make it no wonder Canadian officials were so torn about whether to let her convicted-butt into the country or not ;)

  • "Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable." — C.S. Lewis
