| Growing older has many good points I
| |
| | only have this on yet another trip to
|
| suppose. Maturity brings a lot of
| |
| | Montreal? The recipe is unknown and not
|
| knowledge and experience one can share,
| |
| | shared so in California or any other part
|
| with others but mainly with our children.
| |
| | of this world, no one has a clue.Montreal
|
| Most are not in need or want of what we
| |
| | is home to French Canadian food. Some
|
| have learned in the past and prefer to
| |
| | foods only served at certain times of the
|
| experiment and learn for themselves.With
| |
| | year. Their foods are all delicious but I
|
| this in mind, it occurred to me that one
| |
| | favor a few that I find irresistible.
|
| thing most accepted and shared is a joy
| |
| | There is a meat pie called Tourtiere Pie
|
| in food. Sharing the experience of foods
| |
| | that is usually served at Christmas and
|
| enjoyed, cooking, and sharing tastes of
| |
| | after the Midnight Mass. Good Lord, I
|
| the past are always welcomed.At this
| |
| | could never wait to eat this perfection
|
| stage in my life after seventy one years
| |
| | once a year. Luckily many restaurants
|
| I find that many happy memories seem to
| |
| | offer this delight daily. Each restaurant
|
| dwell on foods of my past. I thought I
| |
| | along with every homemaker has their own
|
| would share some of the more unusual ones
| |
| | proven recipe. I have yet to taste a
|
| with you.I was born in Montreal, Canada,
| |
| | Tourtiere pie I did not love. In fact I
|
| and though I left when I was only sixteen
| |
| | searched for years to find and perfect a
|
| I have to admit I left my heart in that
| |
| | recipe which I shared in my second
|
| beautiful city of my past. I now live in
| |
| | published novel, "Discoveries of a Hidden
|
| California and no one would say that we
| |
| | Past." I will add my recipe at the end of
|
| do not have good food. Our salads alone
| |
| | this article.The other French Canadian
|
| could fill an entire recipe book. The
| |
| | dish I love is a Maple Sugar pie. This
|
| diversity of foods in this state is
| |
| | dessert is very unique as it has the
|
| overwhelming.Ah! but still, I dream and
| |
| | splendid taste of pure maple sugar.
|
| re visit my past only to find and eat the
| |
| | Canada has some of the best maple syrup
|
| foods I find comfort in. Every trip I
| |
| | produced today. Of course I must also
|
| make to Montreal consists of meals I long
| |
| | mention the delightful and hardy Pea
|
| for and every time I travel back there I
| |
| | Soup. This is made of yellow split peas
|
| find it a bit harder to find. So I feel a
| |
| | and cooked to a thick soup that can only
|
| need to document some that I would hate
| |
| | be the best soup for a feeling of
|
| to see lost.A chocolate bar I simply
| |
| | complete comfort and satisfaction.There
|
| adore is called "Cherry Blossom."
| |
| | is a large Jewish population in Montreal
|
| Hershey, Canada makes this. It comes in a
| |
| | and some wonderful tastes of the
|
| small square yellow box. One bite is so
| |
| | unhealthy foods; so we are told, can be
|
| delicious my words can hardly describe
| |
| | found, and eaten to everyone's pure
|
| it. Milk chocolate, mixed with chopped
| |
| | delight. Potato knishes, chopped liver,
|
| nuts covering a small amount of liquid
| |
| | kasha varnishkes, potato varenikas,
|
| and a cherry in the middle. The right
| |
| | blintzes, and cheese begalla, and we all
|
| amount of sweetness, not too much and the
| |
| | share in eating bagels, cream cheese, and
|
| right size to consume with comfort. When
| |
| | lox. No bagels can compare with Montreal
|
| I bite into this candy my mouth is
| |
| | St Viateuer Bagels. They have a chewy
|
| overwhelmed by its taste and how much
| |
| | texture and wonderful taste, almost worth
|
| pleasure this candy brings. I tasted this
| |
| | visiting for them alone. Most are found
|
| bar over sixty five years ago and have
| |
| | in local delicatessens.One food though
|
| loved it ever since. How often can you
| |
| | that is unique is a Rib Steak at Moishe's
|
| find a product unchanged in this much
| |
| | on The Main. This restaurant has been
|
| time?A sandwich called smoked meat is
| |
| | there since my childhood and still
|
| unique to Montreal. It is a delicatessen
| |
| | remains a place for this unique steak and
|
| delight enjoyed by many visitors and
| |
| | rare treat. Frequented by so many people
|
| Montrealer's as well. This meat is
| |
| | you definitely need a reservation. Many
|
| similar to pastrami or corned beef, but I
| |
| | of their extras include some of the
|
| hate to even mention those meats as
| |
| | Jewish style foods I mentioned
|
| smoked meat has a taste that is unique
| |
| | above.Okay, I'm obsessed on food and all
|
| and really cannot be compared. The best
| |
| | are for me comfort foods from my past. I
|
| is that of a delicatessen called
| |
| | have shared them with you and I do hope
|
| Schwartz's on The Main. The original with
| |
| | the next time you visit Montreal you try
|
| some fat, sliced by hand served hot is
| |
| | some. Until then, my mouth will water as
|
| what to eat. Heaven for sure. If comfort
| |
| | I long for these delicacies and
|
| is what you want, there is nothing better
| |
| | contemplate on how and when I may take my
|
| than a hot corned beef sandwich. Can you
| |
| | next trip back to indulge once again.
|
| imagine the agony I suffer knowing I can
