History of Canadian Cuisine

Canadian cuisine has a variety of ingredients and styles. This is because, in addition to its strong indigenous influence, the country has imported many dishes from the two countries that occupied it in antiquity: France and England. Therefore, the cuisine has acquired dishes such as meatloaf, trempettes and Nanaimo bars, among others.

Its star ingredient, maple syrup, is the flagship of the country. Thanks to its vast territory, covered with green meadows and rivers, Canada enjoys very good meat and fish. Of the latter, the most consumed is salmon, which, depending on the area of the country, can be smoked, fresh or baked. Also, vegetables are not lacking in the typical Canadian diet either.
