3. As far as I know this is as close to the traditional item as I can get…. If there are any poutine aficionados then I’m happy to hear your comments
4. I will upload a reall recipe for home made demiglace at some point for those of you who are not sure how to make it. It would be possible of course to make this with instabd demiglace or gravy. Also you could try with other kinds of cheese. You could also add bacon or sausages to this dish. There are of course many variations of this dish in Canada.
