5 Essential Canadian Ingredients Every Cook Should Master
Canada's culinary landscape is rich with unique ingredients that can elevate any dish. Here are five essential Canadian ingredients that every home cook should learn to use:
1. Pure Canadian Maple Syrup
Beyond pancakes, maple syrup adds depth to marinades, glazes, and even savory dishes. Try it in roasted vegetables or as a glaze for salmon.
2. Canola Oil
Developed in Canada, canola oil's neutral flavor and high smoke point make it perfect for everything from baking to high-heat cooking.
3. Wild Rice
This indigenous grain adds nutty flavor and hearty texture to soups, salads, and stuffings. It's particularly wonderful in fall dishes.
