There is some usa or canadian receipt very traditional?

There is some usa or canadian receipt very traditional?

since both countries have had heavy immigration from around the globe over many decades, the cuisine of the country is very mixed... like Italy, there is regional variation too in what people tend to eat

I live in Newfoundland, Canada.  The traditional cuisine is based on cod, salted cod, salt beef, salt pork, pork back fat, yellow split peas, potato, hard bread, molasses, green cabbage, turnip, and carrot... it's mostly very beige and very salty... some of it not very good at all.

I am a fan of fish cakes though: http://alidoesit.wordpress.com/2013/04/03/codfish-cakes/

One of my guilty pleasures is toutons (fried bread) with scrunchions (fried pork fat) and molasses: http://moosecurrry.blogspot.ca/2013/11/sourdough-toutons.html


but to be honest, most of the food I cook is influenced by italian food, mexican food, greek/mediterranean food, indian food, vietnamese food... much "fresher" palates


EDITED TO ADD: also, wild game meat is fairly common in Newfoundland... mostly moose and snowshoe hare, but also caribou, bear, ptarmigan, grouse, duck, goose, seal

Most of the food I cook is not "American" by standard definition, mostly because we do not eat meat We cook a lot of Asian, Indian and Mexican cuisines.
