Learn more about Canada's food in this list excerpted from the Food Day Canada website. Beans and alternate proteins • Yellow and green split peas, red lentils, white pea beans • Chickpeas or "garbanzo beans" and chickpea (besan) fl our • Hemp hearts and hemp oil - Mettrum Originals in Ontario • Flax - milled or whole and fl ax oil -- 99 per cent of the fl ax sold in Canada in from our farms. • Pearl and pot barley -- barley's not just for beer…it makes a killer risotto instead of rice and it tastes infi nitely better. • Quinoa - Ontario (Katan Kitchens/Quinta Quinoa) • Canola oil both traditional used for deep frying and cold-pressed like one of the originals from Jason Persall's Pristine Gourmet (Ontario). Here's the meat • Beef is very regional. Th ere's Golden Beef and Beef North in north- ern Ontario where hay is the major fi eld crop. Can't forget Ontario Corn Fed beef. One of the most successful ranchers is YU Ranch which raises Texas Longhorns in Southwestern Ontario. • Cloth-wrapped, Mennonite-style summer sausage found in many farmers markets and smaller grocery stores. • Pingue's prosciutto - this Niagara-based company was THE pioneer in artisan charcuterie. • Local lamb - there's great lamb from one coast to the other, some of it feasting on salt grasses, while others trim the vines in vineyards. • Canadian Pork - check the labeling as there's a good deal of cheap American pork on our market. • Maple Leaf Canadian Craft ™ cold meats and hams. For such a large manufacturer, this line of products lives up to its billing. • Good Back Bacon - love the handmade products at butcher shops. • Poultry - Because chicken and turkey are 'supply managed' the chances are that most of it is Canadian. It must be labeled. • Eggs - lots of them - virtually all eggs sold in Canada are from Cana- dian farmers. Th e array of choices is amazing. Dairy (there is so much) • Ice Cream - Look for the Dairy Farmers Quality Milk symbol • Yogurt and sour cream • Carnation Milk - many grew up on Carnation desserts. • Eagle Brand Condensed Milk - so amazing for squares and baking. • Halloom frying cheese, a new cheese on the Canadian market and it's terrifi c. Look for either Cedar or PC brands. • Quality Cheeses (Orangeville, Woodbridge) the Borgo family are pioneers in the local cheese-making industry. • Th e production of both sheeps' milk cheese and goats' milk cheese are thriving across the nation. In fact, with few exceptions, it's become a massive, artisan-led industry.
