Canadian Cuisine
This food is diverse and tasty, from bison, elk or beef, to
freshwater fish or seafood such as boreal shrimp or snow crab. Each region has unique dishes and has many influences from the kitchen American and English, although the French-speaking areas have influences of dishes of French cuisine.
Here you are the most common truly Canadian foods:
Maple syrup - It is extracted from maple sap, usually from sugar maple and black maple. There are numerous shades from light amber to extra dark, passing through intermediate tones.5 In Spring it is collected and then processed by the growers.
Smoked meat - It is associated with Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It is usually served on a plate or on a rye bread sandwich with a mustard sandwich. The most characteristic of the Montreal sandwich is the amount of meat it contains and usually, the customer can choose the type of meat from the filling, from lean to fat and all intermediate cuts.
Peameal Bacon or Canadian bacon - Consists of bacon loins
made from pork loin, cut into thin slices, pickled and rolled in corn flour.
Bannock or Indian bread - It is a flat roll or bun, cooked on the fire, characteristic of the original nations of Canada.
Nanaimo bars - It is a dessert that does not need to be cooked with the ground water (for the base), butter glaze with custard flavor (for the center layer) and melted chocolate (top layer). It comes from the city of Nanaimo, located in British Columbia, on the west coast of the country.
Bagels - These are traditional bread rolls made from wheat
flour and are reminiscent of a donut. However, they are salty and have a crunchy crust. Montreal bagels are very special because they are crafted and baked in a wood-fired oven.

Poutine - chips thicker than normal covered in gravy and served with cheese-usually cheddar very little cured-.
