7 Traditional Canadian Foods You Must Not Miss
Well, we all crave to try poutine, but there are
many varieties of dishes you must try out in
Canada. Each Canadian dish serves a plate of
amazingly epic food and not just the poutine.
From poutine to centuries-old tasty soups, smoky
meat, to unmissable desserts, here are 7
Traditional Canadian Foods that are truly iconic
in their own way.
5
Poutine
Among a few of the world-renowned Canadian
dishes, poutine is a glorious one. The
oh-so-delectable combination of crispy fries,
squeaky cheese curds and rich peppery gravy makes
this dream meal so popular around the world. This
classic Canadian cuisine with French touch is one
of its kind, but when added toppings like bacon,
pork or smoky meat, it really hits the taste
palate differently. This is why Poutine has
become one such culinary gem of French Canadian
that every renowned restaurant wants to keep on
the menu all over the world.

Canadian Bacon
In several countries, what is served as Peameal
Bacon, the Canadian cuisine branded it as the
Canadian Bacon with a twist. In contrast to the
traditional bacon that uses the belly portion of
the pig, Canadian bacon is a dish prepared using
thin pork loin. This piece of bacon is then
preserved in salt and rolled into cornmeal to
enhance its flavors. Earlier it was all rolled
into the yellow peas as a preservation step.
However, this has been swapped with cornmeal over
the years.

Canadian Style Pizza
Pizza is a popular go-to food that almost
everyone wants to order from the menu.
Canadian-style pizza is quite different from the
dough and fried American-style pizza.
Canadian-style includes a thin-crust pizza with
a large variety of creatively different toppings.
Where there is Cronenberg Crash flavored pizza
including tandoori tofu, cilantro pesto, peanuts,
mango and red pepper, Wayne Gretzky flavored
pizza has Italian salami, caramelized onions,
flecks and chorizo, chili flakes, hot peppers
along with three different types of cheese
including mozzarella, cheddar and feta cheese. In
addition, maple syrup is there as a complementary
topping to pour on them.
8
Butter tarts
Butter Tarts are one of the most simple yet
delicious items Canadian cuisine offers. They are
a sweet preparation of crispy pastry shells
filled with eggs, sugar and butter.
9
Bloody Caesar
Perhaps the national cocktail of Canada is Bloody
Caesar. Caesar is a blend of vodka and clamato
juice spiced up with Worcestershire and Clamato
juice. Do you know what makes it truly Canadian?
Well, the addition of Bloody Mary makes this
cocktail an absolute companion of brunch.
10
Montreal-style Bagels
When it comes to naming one unsung winning food
from the Canadian dishes, Montreal-style bagels
are definitely one of them. Montreal bagels are a
thinner, denser and sweeter treat that goes into
the traditional wood fire oven to get baked.
These traditional Canadian Montreal-style bagels
are quite different from their New York City
counterparts and often get garnished with sesame
or poppy seeds for crunch.
11
Montreal-style Smoked Meat
Another Montreal-style delicacy is the Smoky meat
which is quite similar in taste to Pastrami. This
meaty dish is the heavenly preparation of beef
briskly salt, which goes on for a week-long cure
with an assortment of spices. Later it gets all
smoked and simmered to prepare the divine
perfection. Montreal's smoked meat is a great
accompaniment to a rye bread sandwich coated with
tangy flavored yellow mustard. Besides, it is
also used as a topping for the world-famous
poutine. If you want to understand the flavors of
it, try Montreal's smoked meat yourself.
