Poutine Survey: Who here has eaten it? Who here loves it?

@Joeblow,

I don't know from poutine but this thread is giving me a serious fresh curd craving!!! When I was a kid we'd drive to cheese factories across the border in Wisconsin and get the freshly minted stuff. Then the farmer's market when I was a genuine local cheesehead. Nothing since, really. Sniff.

@sozobe,

I know and share your pain.

Maybe I'll make it a mission to track some down one of these days.

Poutine is great every year or every other year - the memory lasts.

Curds and butter tarts are a nice autumn treat Very Happy

FRESH CHEESE CURD, the squeaky cheese is cheese that hasn't been aged. An easy-to-love cheese made from pasteurized cow's milk. It is great for on-the-run snacking and in salads, or melt it on toast for a fantastic sandwich. Buttery and salty. Best when served at room temperature...

Not much on the ingredient list. Damn. I might try and make some instead.

@ehBeth,

Yes, I gotta agree, every year or two sounds about right.

@Joeblow,

A friend of mine is going to take a cheese-making course this autumn - I'll betcha curds are stage 1 or 2.

When I watch them making mozzarella tableside at some downtown restos, I'm pretty darn sure I could replicate it with the right flick of the wrist.

Tried it at Harvey's in Tranna. Love it. Not sharing it with Setanta. (I said I would, but thought better of it after I tried them.)

I love it that the related topic - at the bottom of this thread, is:

Child abuse in Canada!

That's one take on poutine!

I was the one you tried to stab with your plastic fork after you'd lifted the poutine out of my reach.
