An American's attempt at poutine.
Home-made cheese curd, home-made fries.
Beef gravy with demi-glace and butter and shallots and black pepper and a light brown roux. (Christey couldn't keep her fingers out of the picture).
Not bad (actually, really, really good). I thought the gravy was too thick, so I thinned it, but too much. I should have left it as it was. Now that I think I have the basics, I'm going to expand on it a lot this weekend...
(I think it was too pale, too. Canadians, what do you think? Okay for a first attempt?)
